Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world; indeed it is the only thing that ever has.

Peaceful Valley Park Charrette - reclaimpeacefulvalley

The Charrette is an intensive design and planning workshop designed to stimulate ideas and involve the public in the community planning/design process. It is a valuable tool for laying the foundation for the development of a comprehensive plan, master plan, or strategic plan. In our case we will be designing formal plans for our neighborhoods parks-Peaceful Valley Park, Peaceful Valley River Walk, and Glover Field.

We need neighbors with a broad range of skills and backgrounds. Peaceful Valley residents bring a unique insight to the charrette process. Together, and only together, we can restore our parks and make Peaceful Valley a better place to live.
In addition to neighborhood input the charrette process will in list the services of interest groups such as; Friends Of The Falls, The Lands Council, Spokane County Conservation District, Washington Department of Ecology, Spokane Parks Department, Local Tribes, West Valley City School, Veteran Conservation Corps and anyone else that has an interest in this cause.
