Starke Irvine, head of the Downtown Redevelopment Authority, will speak about the DRA’s plans for the “Olde Towne” area of the Jubilee City.

Proposed plans to think about are as follows:

“After we hear form Mr. Irvine, OTDA will host a community conversation brainstorming idea to expand DRA’s efforts into our residential neighborhoods,” Nady said.

The ideas generated through this community brainstorming event will become part of a plan for the Olde Towne Daphne area, according to the news release.

“We look forward to hearing from you, your neighbors or home owners association,” Nady said.
