Contra Costa County Supervisor Shanelle Scales-Preston will begin hosting a series of community goal-setting meetings beginning April 30.
Scales-Preston invites the community to join her April 30 at 6 PM at the Crockett Community Center for the first of several Community Goal-Setting Meetings happening across District 5. These meetings are your opportunity to share what matters most to you—whether it’s safety, youth programs, infrastructure, or something else entirely. I want to hear your ideas so we can shape real, impactful projects together that make a difference in our neighborhoods.
