Dear Bessemer City Neighbors,
We have begun a new community planning project which will help shape the future of our town, and we really want you to participate in the development of the plans. Your input will be crucial to completing this new vision for our community’s future.

We are providing two options for gathering resident feedback. You can attend a public meeting at 7:00pm in our Council Chambers in City Hall on Thursday, December 4, 2008, or you can join us on-line at www.wikiplanning.org. You can take a survey, leave your comments and participate in other project activities. Just click on the link above and enter the password BCNC when prompted.Thanks! Your participation will definitely make a difference.
