To promote neighborhood engagement, the City of Valparaiso is hosting a Neighborhood Workshop on Wednesday, January 22, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm at Valparaiso City Hall, 166 Lincolnway. Neighborhood Workshops provide an opportunity for neighborhood representatives to connect, learn from each other and become more familiar with available neighborhood services. The January agenda includes a welcome from Mayor Jon Costas, a summary of the 2025 Neighborhood Improvement Grant Guidelines and a presentation by the Valparaiso Creative Council to inspire creative grant project ideas.
Neighborhood groups, including homeowners’ associations, neighborhood associations or newly forming groups are encouraged to send representatives to the workshop. “Neighborhood workshops are a great source of information and inspiration. We look forward to connecting neighborhoods with ideas and resources,” said Maggie Clifton, Valpo’s Director of Community Engagement. The full agenda is available on the Community Engagement page at Valpo.us.
To participate in the Neighborhood Workshop, please RSVP by contacting Maggie Clifton at City Hall (219) 462-1161, mclifton@valpo.us. RSVP is requested to ensure materials and space for all participants.
