WHAT WE WANT YOU TO REMEMBER • Creativity • Flexibility • Being Realistic • Exploring public interest • Efficiency
Creativity • Being creative promotes interest and catches the publics attention • Unique presentations • Graphical representations rather than text heavy presentations • Don’t have to always reinvent the wheel • You will continue to reinvent yourself as a planner, a community member, and human.
Flexibility • Being adaptive to ever changing situations • Willingness to change • Individual needs of public • Negotiations (give and take)
Being Realistic • Understand limitations (money, structure) • Accepting other ideas • Understanding area of interest (public, land, economic situation) • Understanding the people for which you are planning
Exploring Public Interest • Always consider the minority opinion • Needs before novelties • Don’t be afraid to try new things, the public may respond well! • You are planning for the public so make everything about the public
Efficiency • Streamlining in new ways • Best ways to involve public • More productive meetings • Finding ways to hear everyone’s opinion (surveys, polls, interest, telephone) • But not being so efficient that systems are liable to collapse
