Volunteer to help at the 5th Annual Small Business Saturday on Selby event, December 5!
If you live, work, commute, or own a business along Selby Avenue, or want to help guide future development in the area, join us for a workshop on Wednesday, September 23, at 6:00 p.m. to discuss what comes next. Future development along Selby Avenue is guided by zoning, the City’s rulebook for what can be built where. The City of Saint Paul wants your input about how we can use zoning to help the corridor grow in a way that supports community goals and investment in public transit. The workshop will focus on the B Line’s route on Selby Avenue from Hamline Avenue to John Ireland Boulevard.

Summertime is event time in Summit-University! We want you to stay safe and healthy at these community events. Stop by our booth this summer to say hi and grab a free hand fan to help keep you cool. Climate change has made it challenging for the community to hold outdoor events in the summer. From extra-hot days with added humidity to wildfire smoke that causes dangerous air pollution levels, there are real risks involved in planning outdoor events. Please keep in mind that there are degrees of danger when it comes to heat or air quality. People with health conditions, elders, and young children are more at risk. Inclusive events keep in mind that it may not be safe for all to attend. We would like to encourage anyone planning an event to have a weather plan that includes an indoor backup option!
