A civic organizing site asking Gainesville residents to help shape the future of public utility land near Depot Park.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-21 issue.
For
Gainesville residents and Depot Park users
Worth noticing
The site separates the GRU Authority’s sale powers from the City of Gainesville’s zoning and site-plan powers.

Field notes

The page maps a local land-use dispute onto two separate decision paths: the GRU Authority controls the sale and its terms, while the city controls zoning, the comprehensive plan, and site-plan review. Its organizing form goes beyond an email capture by asking about neighborhoods, proximity to the site, and concrete contributions such as records research or legal and planning expertise. Photographs and aerial views document the property before the stated demolition schedule.
