A year ago, the Spokane Parks Department presented the Riverfront Master Plan to our membership.  Since then, the Spokane Voters have approved $64.3 Million Capital Improvements Bond that will fund the proposed improvements.  Both Leroy Eadie and Juliet Sinisterra,  both with the City of Spokane, are back  to present on the next steps and overall process for design and construction of the park.  They will also highlight ways that citizens can become involved this coming year.
