With no updates to its downtown plan in nearly 20 years — and some concepts going back farther — the city of Davis is starting a process to rethink its urban core.
Berkeley-based Opticos Design Inc. hosted a meeting last week to get feedback on what Davis’ future downtown might resemble, under a city contract. Daniel Parolek, an Opticos principal who helped run the meeting, said it focused on a big picture framework, defining spaces and “opportunity sites” within the city.
