AMERICAN CANYON -- The city of American Canyon will hold a public hearing later this month to consider approval for construction of a new ecology center.
The hearing will take place at 6:30 p.m. on Jan. 25 at city hall.
The permit applicant, Napa River Ecology Center Design Permit Project, aims to repurpose an existing 5,000-square-foot city corporation yard and 3-acre parcel at 205 Wetlands Edge Road into an ecology center. The goal is to facilitate both indoor and outdoor instructional uses and community activities, according to the notice for the hearing.
These activities would focus on conservation and environmental science, nature art and wellness programs, according to the public hearing agenda.
