The goal of these activities is to gather ideas about what projects are important to the community and how they can enhance these public areas. These concepts will ultimately become suggestions for the City of Moline to consider:
• What projects the community would like to see develop in the I-74 Corridor;
• And establish and promote a clear vision for new developments that align with the City’s economic development and urban design goals.
