Citizens help seek the direction for Derby’s future

Derby resident Lisa O’Hair spent a bit of a recent afternoon examining concepts for the city’s future at the Vision Derby 2040 Design Studios event.

She said it was time well spent and got to make a point of wanting to make the city a more environmentally friendly one.

“We love Derby but it’s not that ‘green,’” she said.

O’Hair said she and her family, who have lived here for 4-1/2 years, would like to see more emphasis on the environment, including opening up space for community gardens and additional stress on recycling.
