The City of Napa Seeks Input From the Public on the Composition of District Boundaries

The community's input is extremely important in the development of the voting districts as we transition to a district-based election system for Councilmembers and the City is seeking the public’s participation in the process.

In response to input received at the February 25, 2020 Special City Council Meeting, staff has made a slight change in timing, and added a second location to the Community Workshop on Sunday, March 8^th.

What you can do to participate:

New Survey: Public Safety & City Hall Facilities Project

Napa - we want to hear from you again!

In previous Public Safety & City Hall Facilities project surveys, we received feedback that the community would like the new City civic buildings to reflect the culture and history of Napa. Please help us to get a better understanding of what buildings you believe best reflect the culture and history of Napa and meet the goal of the Downtown Napa Specific Plan to: “Honor the Past, Embrace the Future”. The collected images will be compiled for community comment at a public meeting on March 18th. The results will be used to help shape the design guidelines for the future civic buildings and civic plaza.

Take our survey today!
