About the Event
Following the Presentation, Facilitators (from Design Collective potentially supplemented by others) will guide Small Group (6-12 people) Roundtable Discussions, with questions; these Roundtable Discussions will take place in 2 rounds at each table, for 1 hour each (to accommodate a large stakeholder group). While half of the stakeholders are at the Roundtables, the other half will circulate to several topic-based Stations (groups of boards and table, with sticky notes, pens, etc. for comments). There will be a facilitator/notetaker (from Pleasants Development) at each Station. After an hour, stakeholders will rotate. Potential Stations may include:
Station 1 - Beck East Plan – layout of streets, blocks & open spaces
Station 2 - Beck West Plan – layout of streets, blocks & open spaces
Station 3 - APFO (Water, Sewer, Schools, Roads, Police, Fire, Parks/Open Space)
Station 4 - Residential Types, Commercial Area, Open Spaces, and Amenities
