The City of Aspen has a new webpage – Open City Hall. The page is an online forum that allows individuals who sign-in, the opportunity to voice their opinions about various topics. The site is designed for City officials to read the statements and include them into their decision process.

This week, post your thoughts on the appropriate building heights and land uses for downtown. Let City Council know your thoughts on one of the hottest topics in Aspen. Now’s your chance to make a difference in our downtown area. Be heard without sitting through the massive City Council meetings…we hope you’ll all participate.
