This document summarizes a meeting to review the land use scenario evaluation process for a regional planning effort. It outlines the agenda, which included an overview of the scenario building and assessment process, a tour of the scenario assessment tool, and preparations for upcoming public open houses. The process involved developing land use themes and scenarios, refining them based on workshops, conducting technical analyses to evaluate impacts, and sharing results at open houses. Workshops were held to gather input on preferred development areas and principles for each theme. Scenarios were then evaluated based on criteria like accessibility and land costs. Upcoming public outreach events were reviewed to gather additional feedback on preferred growth patterns for the region through 2040.

The process is designed in 3 phases.
First phase is to answer the question of where we are.
Second phase is to explore future landscape options by developing land use scenarios and evaluating their impacts.
The last phase is to develop a conceptual regional growth framework based on data, information and knowledge obtained from the previous phases.
Educate and Engage
Inform regional stakeholders about the Going Places initiative, the importance of regional land use planning, and regional developmental trends, socioeconomic trends, and developmental constraints and opportunities
Involve regional stakeholders in the development process of future land use themes and future land use scenarios
This is a brainstorming exercise to get you all thinking about the themes you have chosen. Really try to concentrate on the principles and characteristics of your theme as you envision them and try to come up with some policies that you think would help make future development in the Region occur along the lines of your theme. This is all about your interpretation and all ideas are welcome. Please be open to each other’s thoughts and write down as much as possible. The idea is to collect as many of your ideas as possible.
First Workshop was conducted with the Steering and Planning Advisory Committee members on June 16, 2009
A total of 17 Community Workshops have been completed
A total of 15 Focus Group Workshops have been completed
We scheduled 5 open houses in the 4 counties. We tried to disperse the open houses so that the entire population of the region would be reasonably close to at least one open house.
Once we scheduled the open houses, we created posters and flyers to advertise the workshops and mailed them out to local government offices and libraries. We posted them at RTA and sent them to churches and community centers. We collected e-mail or physical addresses for every organization we could think of and spammed them all. All participants of the workshops who gave us an email address were notified.
We placed ads in the Dayton Daily News, in local papers, in community newsletters, and on community websites. There will be inserts in today’s DDN. We added the workshops to various community calendars and sent information to bloggers who write about local issues.
Our website has information about all the open houses.
The open houses have been posted as events on Facebook.
