Upcoming ConnectMenlo Events
We would love to see you at one or more of the following events.  Public participation is a key part of the success of this effort.  

Focus Group
Mixed use? More office use? Increased recreational opportunities?  Greater access to retail and services?  Your ideas are needed to help identify land use concepts for the future of the M-2 area.  These ideas will then be developed into land use alternatives that will be presented at a future community workshop.
September 29| 7-9 p.m.| Juniper Room, Arrillaga Family Recreation Center

Mobile Workshop 
Tour Menlo Park like you have never seen it before.  We will be taking a double decker bus around town to view and discuss various land use and circulation concepts and issues.
