Goal: Generating Public and Political Support • Anatomy of the general public

• 0.1% - STP• 0.9% - Stakeholders• 99% - People

• Every RFP calls for them but few reach them• Who are they?

• They don’t care much about planning• They are misjudged• They are busy• They feel uninformed• They don’t hang out at workshops• They don’t see themselves as participants

Rx for public participation in planning…• Fast (5 minutes)• Fun (like a game)• Easy (no instructions, no traveling)• Informative (helps them understand tradeoffs)• Meaningful (relevant and useful)

• It’s a tall order but when it works:– Massive community engagement = success (It’s Our Future)
