See this question from Bloomingdale resident Chris:

Dianne,

A question for clarification.... Are the two MAG-sponsored community meetings for general input on the project or is the focus specifically on the community amenities package?

Thanks

Chris

Whatever input the community offer is welcome but the main issue is the community amenities package.
