The meeting is scheduled from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Lawrenceville City Hall at 70 South Clayton Street.

The event will offer an opportunity to review draft recommendations for the area, including land use, transportation and urban design needs with a focus on proposed changes to Collins Hill Road and Northdale Road.
