The city of Cortez, guided by a team of community volunteers, has embarked on a two-year Heart and Soul project to learn what the residents of the Cortez community think matters most about our city, about where its headed, and what you would like it to be. Over the next two years, well collect community values (what you value about Cortez) from as many people as possible. The volunteer team will then ask community members to help turn those values into action items for city planners.
