You can voice your own opinion in public about Fort Monroe's future. At the city of Hampton’s Fort Monroe public hearings in July 2006, you can express your views.
Hampton's
way is to treat Fort
Monroe as an “economic engine” to be “redeveloped.” Our question about that: Would anyone ever dream of “redeveloping” Monticello or Mount Vernon?
We see a better way: Fort Monroe as a self-sustaining national park under a Fort Monroe Trust.
What do YOU think?

sensible, constructive ways to participate.
