After a pause in momentum during the coronavirus pandemic, Topeka’s five-year community development plan is getting back on track. According to Michelle Cuevas-Stubblefield, senior vice president of strategy for the Greater Topeka Partnership, Momentum 2022 is still very much alive, and the handful of workgroups tasked with pursuing different initiatives to push that plan forward are re-engaging this month. “We’re still going to monitor COVID, and we’re going to address that,” she said, “but at the same time, it’s time to get our momentum back.” Cuevas-Stubblefield said Momentum 2022 had been put on hold in March when COVID-19 cases and effects of the pandemic began to reach Topeka and Shawnee County.
