Streetscaping of Joplin's Main Street to be discussed, public invited
JOPLIN, Mo. — Members of the public are invited to share their thoughts on downtown's streetscaping project.
According to the City of Joplin, a public meeting will be held on April 22 to discuss Main Street's streetscaping from 8th Street to 15th Street.
What does streetscaping involve? Subjects ranging from surfacing, sidewalks, and lighting improvements will be the focus — and citizens are encouraged to share their input.
The Open House Public Meeting will be held on the fifth floor of Joplin City Hall, which is located at 602 S. Main Street. Starting at 4:00 p.m. and running until 6:00 p.m. on April 22. The contractor for the project will have representatives at the meeting.
A three-million-dollar grant from Housing and Urban Development is funding the project, which the City of Joplin matched, sourced from the Transportation Sales Tax fund.
