Public Invited to Contribute Ideas for Community at UMore Park
During University of Minnesota-Hosted Listening Sessions in
September

The University of Minnesota is hosting six listening sessions in September to gather ideas and input for a new community being planned
on the site of the University of Minnesota Outreach, Research and Education (UMore) Park. Located in Dakota County, near Rosemount,
Minn., UMore Park includes 5,000 acres of land owned by the University. Following studies of how best to use the land, the University's Board of Regents charged the University to initiate a
concept master planning process to guide the development of a new community at UMore Park. The vision is to create a University-founded, culturally rich, diverse community of 20,000 to
30,000 people, to be undertaken over a 25- to 30-year period.

Each listening session will be held from 5:00 to 7:15 p.m. Topics, dates, locations and other details about the listening sessions are
online at www.umorepark.umn.edu. Because a light meal will be served, RSVPs are appreciated. Registrations can be made online or by calling
(612) 626-3976.

People who are unable to attend the sessions may provide input by submitting their comments at www.umorepark.umn.edu.
