District Community Listening Sessions Planned

In a continued effort to gather the feedback and hear the concerns of Kenner residents, and as part of the "Kenner 2030 Plan for Prosperous Future", a series of District listening sessions have been scheduled for the coming months. Mayor Yenni and the council members associated to each district are scheduled to attend to listen to resident concerns in an informal setting.   Community Listening Sessions will take place in each council district progressing numerically as follows:   COUNCIL DISTRICT DATE LOCATION 1 5/29/2013 Heritage Hall, 303 Williams Blvd. 2 6/26/2013 Kenner Council Chambers, 1801 Williams Blvd. 3 7/24/2013 Driftwood Park Country Club, 94 Gelpi Ave. 4 8/28/2013 Kenner City Park Pavilion, 3800 Loyola Dr. 5 9/25/2013 Kenner City Park Pavilion, 3800 Loyola Dr.   All meetings will begin at 7:30 p.m. and doors will open 15 minutes prior to start time.  While open to the public, these sessions are intended to listen to specific concerns from each council district in smaller settings. We are once again reaching out to you, our Civic Association leaders, to help share this information with your members to increase resident participation across the Districts. Please mark the date and location for your District's session on your calendar and encourage your members to do the same.   The intention of the listening sessions is to foster greater public trust in the transparency and effectiveness of city government. This is the ideal time for residents to participate in discussion centered on their district with Mayor Yenni and their Council Representatives.   As it becomes available, updated information on listening sessions can be found on the city website, Kenner Facebook Page or via the Mayor's Office at 468-7240.  For questions regarding the upcoming District Sessions, please contact Deputy Chief Administrative Officer Natalie Newton at 468-7240.   I have attached the Press Release for more information about the event.
