| A neighborhood meeting was held on
Wednesday September 6 to help identify community concerns, issues, and
dreams. Over 40 community residents participated along with 8
Ball State students.
Participants first located their home on an aerial photograph of
the neighborhood. Small groups then identified a list of assets
of Harvester, or what they like about the neighborhood. They
then identified liabilities or needs of Harvester...or things they did
not like or did not have. From this, each team developed a top 5
list. At the end of the meeting everyone voted on the top
issues. These are presented below. These issues, along
with the survey and housing data, will guide the charrette, to take
place September 22 and 23.
