The City will be hosting a second public open house on Wednesday, November 20, 7-8:30 p.m. at the Community Center (8116 Park View Blvd.) to show a conceptual design for a new community swimming pool. 

We will share the results of the community feedback and will show conceptual designs in the proposed location of Central Park. A formal recommendation to the City Council will be made in January. 

Consultants and City staff will be available to answer questions. 

If you're looking for a place to get rid of your yard waste this fall, look no further than the La Vista Public Works Department.

We will also host our annual Leaf Collection Day on Saturday, November 16, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and staff will be on hand that day to assist with unloading, etc.
