The Planning Office, in conjunction with the Land Use, Health& Development Department, received a <br /> Program Improvement Request(PIR)to update the Town's comprehensive Master Plan.The <br /> development of the Plan will be a dynamic process and may require several iterations to complete. <br /> While we are requesting funding for the full project, it is important to note that it may be phased— <br /> provided it's done properly. Staff considers the items included under Part i of this framework as <br /> prerequisites for any of the items contained in Part 2 of the process. <br /> It is expected that these items will be separately bid, such that the most appropriate private-sector <br /> expertise in these subject areas can be procured. The Planning Office will play a key role in the <br /> implementation of the process and will serve as the primary Town contact to any consultants <br /> throughout the master planning process. <br /> PART i PRE-PLANNING ACTIVITIES <br /> The Planning Office has identified several action items that require the following steps or studies to be <br /> conducted to begin moving forward. <br /> i.

The credibility and utility of the Master Plan <br /> update process and the prospect for its adoption and implementation will rest heavily on strong <br /> public participation. The outreach process must be organized in such a way that the public's time is <br /> not wasted. The selected Consultant for this element must provide evidence of their experience in <br /> consensus building and negotiation among interest groups. <br /> As the work of the Plan proceeds, results should be frequently communicated to residents via <br /> multiple mediums,the Planning Office intends to solicit consultant help to prepare a Community <br /> Education and Engagement Plan using both traditional and forward-looking methods of public <br /> contact to ensure broad participation and community awareness of the planning process. This <br /> would likely include (but is certainly not limited to)email lists, social media,the Town's website, <br /> local papers, in-person events, and surveys. <br /> 2. Initial Data Gathering <br /> The planning process will require a thorough review of previous planning documents and a detailed <br /> analysis of current conditions. Staff has identified three discrete tasks that should be completed <br /> prior to engaging the public. <br /> -I.of1, <br />
