A vision of Auburn's future begins to take shape

AUBURN - City of Auburn residents had a chance to discuss what they would like the city to look like within the next five, 10 and 20 years Saturday morning. Approximately 25 people attended a comprehensive plan workshop, where they voted on and discussed images that were appealing to them and talked about key issues that need to be addressed in order to improve Auburn, including things that people liked and what should be changed.

The discussion was led by consulting firm Saratoga Associates, the company hired by the city to help with the comprehensive plan.

“The best thing about this was seeing that something is being done,” said Denise Hardy, who came to the workshop with her husband, John. “They are trying to implement a change. That's very important to me.”
