AURORA | Get to know the City of Aurora better and then tell them what you think during a family-friendly afternoon of entertainment.

Aurora wants residents to come see what Aurora is up to and give feedback on multiple city projects involving topics like infrastructure and transportation.

“The city wants your input on some critical projects impacting Aurora’s future,” a statement from the city said. “Have a say and have some fun at the first-ever Engage Aurora Live!”

The event is free and family-friendly with food and activities like Touch-A-Truck (featuring public safety and Public Works vehicles), the Aurora Public Library Bookmobile and a spring gardening craft for all ages.

There will be tours of the AuroraTV studio at 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

“When you arrive, stop at our tent to pick up an event passport to get stamped and be entered into a drawing for a gift basket,” the statement said.

The event will also allow local residents to ask questions and provide feedback to the city on these projects:

• Build Up Aurora – Infrastructure projects like public safety, parks, accessibility and more matter most to you.

• Connecting Aurora – Multimodal transportation projects being proposed through the citywide transportation master plan.

• Colfax BRT Next- A study to extend the Colfax Bus Rapid Transit project from I-225 (R Line) to Piccadilly Road.

• Radiating Possibilities – The library’s strategic plan. Information is also available online at EngageAurora.org/LibraryVision.

“These projects are helping care for the city’s network of infrastructure that improves the lives of Aurora residents,” the statement said.
