INVITATION
TO
VIRTUAL OPEN HOUSE
The Virtual Open House is a very interactive format for sharing your thoughts on important topics, including:
TRANSPORTATION
:
How do people travel in and around the city? Are important destinations, including parks, schools, city facilities and commercial areas connected to residential neighborhoods?
NEIGHBORHOODS
: How can the city's neighborhood units better serve the residents who reside within them? How can improving walkability in neighborhoods improve the overall walkability of the city.
COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS:
How healthy are the city’s commercial corridors (Southfield Road and the mile roads)? Do they serve the needs of city residents? What does the appearance of the corridors say about the community?

RECREATION PROGRAMMING & PLAYGROUNDS
After careful consideration and in compliance with the Governor's executive orders and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines, the City of Lathrup Village has made the difficult decision to cancel all in-person Parks & Recreation programming, events, and activities through August 31 2020.
Everyone is reminded during the holiday and summer that
PLAYGROUNDS ARE CLOSED
in accordance with CDC guidelines, U
sing playgrounds might lead to the spread of COVID-19 because:
- They are often crowded and could easily exceed recommended guidance for gatherings.
- It can be challenging to keep surfaces clean and disinfected.
- The virus can spread when young children touch contaminated equipment and then touch their hands to their eyes, nose, or mouth.
PARKS ARE OPEN - for individual fitness activities, such as walking and jogging. Visitors are reminded to continue to observe the CDCs minimum recommended social distancing of at least 6 feet from other individuals, if they do not live in your household.
