Residents of the Constellation of Starke region are invited to attend tonight’s community outreach event at the Nancy J. Dembowski Community Center in Knox.
Things will kick off at 6 p.m. and during the event, community members will be filled in on the Stellar process so far and will have a chance to learn more about projects and programs that will be incorporated into the Stellar Communities Regional Development Plan.
After coordinating with local leaders and receiving feedback from the community, there are multiple projects being considered, such as housing in the three major incorporated areas, park improvements, beach upgrades and a unique connector project that would help link the communities by installing lanes for bicycles and golf carts on existing, underutilized roadways.
Other potential projects include developing a plan to implement a county-wide transportation system, supporting opioid addiction remediation programs, improving downtown areas as well as developing a network of creators to emphasize the arts and encourage collaboration.
In order to make sure Constellation of Starke’s residents are being accurately represented in the Regional Development Plan that will be submitted to program officials in September, individuals are being asked to participate in a brief, five-minute survey.
Some print outs will be available at the event but you can also take it online by clicking the following link: Constellation of Starke Community Outreach Survey.

Constellation of Starke Executive Team Discusses Community Outreach
Posted on June 1, 2019

When the Constellation of Starke Executive Team met Thursday afternoon, they addressed the success of recent community outreach efforts.
Creative Director Jessica Martinović reported that the inventive and informational video made by Mirth and Whimsy was posted to social media following the public meeting that was held on Thursday, May 23rd.
During that meeting, about 100 people got to see the video for the first time.
Since it was posted a little over a week ago, it’s been shared nearly 150 times and has reached more than 12,800 people. It’s also gathered more than 110 ‘likes’ and a plethora of positive comments.
There was a consensus amongst team members that this was an indication that they’re effectively reaching the community.
In addition to keeping Starke County residents engaged online, plans are in the works to attend the Bass Lake Festival, the Mint Festival in North Judson and other events this summer to spread the word about Constellation of Starke and to gather more input from the public.
