Fort Wayne, Ind. – The City of Fort Wayne invites residents to share their ideas and feedback on draft recommendations for the Waynedale 2040 Plan, a roadmap that will guide growth, redevelopment, and community priorities for years to come.

Waynedale residents are invited to attend one of the following free open houses to talk with neighborhood planners and give input on proposed priorities. There is no formal presentation, so residents can stop by at any point during the events.

• Tuesday, February 17, 6 – 8 p.m., Allen County Public Library Waynedale Branch, 2200 Lower Huntington Rd.
• Thursday, February 19, 5 – 7 p.m., Allen County Public Library Waynedale Branch, 2200 Lower Huntington Rd.
