This document discusses using facilitated volunteered geographic information (VGI) to visualize transportation patterns. Facilitated VGI involves using online geospatial surveys to collect location-based information from the public in response to a defined question or geographic area.

An example of facilitated VGI is a community trail mapping project, which can rapidly gather broad input from a large sample size, though it loses the personal touch of in-person surveys. Informed design requires understanding transportation patterns through methods like facilitated VGI.

DDC and NAF presentation at CommunityMatters Workshop in Newport VermontCommunityMatters
This document discusses engaging citizens in public decision-making and problem solving. It outlines three tiers of digital engagement: one-way information sharing, two-way exchange of ideas, and collaboration to solve problems. Some examples of engagement methods mentioned include video conferences, websites with project information, text messages, online suggestion boxes, and participatory budgeting where citizens have input over budget decisions. The benefits of participatory budgeting highlighted are that it gives citizens real decision power, increases government accountability, supports democratic practices, and improves trust in government.
Grassroots grantmakers presentation for community matters in newport vermontCommunityMatters
Grassroots grantmaking focuses on empowering community groups and citizens to create positive change from the ground up. It provides small grants and other resources to help people turn their ideas into realities. This approach believes that engaged community members can better address local needs than outside agencies. Grassroots grantmakers include community foundations, giving circles, and other organizations that take a people-powered approach. Their goal is to support collaborative projects led by community members, such as neighborhood cleanups, youth programs, local celebrations, and more. Even small grants can spark new relationships and community initiatives that create lasting impact.

The document discusses how a small city used partnerships and a form-based code to refresh and develop real estate.

CM10 Reshaping Development Patterns Bruce BurgerCommunityMatters
This document summarizes research on rural real estate markets in the Northern Rockies region after the Great Recession. It discusses how the housing bubble led to a resetting of home values, and analyzes evolving demographic trends and changing consumer preferences that are shaping the "new normal". Surveys find consumers want more affordable and environmentally friendly homes, and baby boomers are focusing more on retirement than purchasing luxury homes. The recovery will be gradual as imbalances from the housing boom are worked off and inventory decreases, with a preference for built homes over vacant lots. Communities will need to navigate this changing landscape through responsible growth policies and renewed identity.
The document lists the names of several people and organizations along with brief descriptions of their community projects. These projects focus on topics like a local food co-op, network organizing, intergenerational community living, youth biodiesel production, a local securities exchange, sustainable home retrofits, and economic development programs. All of the projects provide a link where people can go to vote for them on a website about strengthening communities.
The document provides information about a University of Delaware team that used a land use modeling approach to help with community planning in Sussex County, Delaware. It summarizes the context of Delaware and Sussex County, including population density and rural land percentages. It then describes the team's principles of prioritizing community and public input. The document outlines the land use "crayons" or categories used in the model, from rural to urban land uses. It provides examples of modeling scenarios for a Cape Region study area, comparing existing land use to a comprehensive plan scenario. It discusses benefits and challenges of the modeling approach and examples of public workshops where community members provided input on land use maps.
This document summarizes the results of a community planning process in Damariscotta, Maine called the Heart and Soul Planning Project. The project identified community values through public engagement activities. These values centered around working and living locally, access to culture and nature, an involved community, and a sense of community. The document outlines specific action items under each value to guide land use planning and policy changes. Next steps discussed include additional community workshops, drafting code amendments including form-based codes, and a town-wide vote on any proposed code changes.
The document summarizes Golden, Colorado's process of identifying its community values through public engagement to guide city decision-making and build capacity. Key aspects included story listening at block parties and group meetings to gather over 2,000 value statements from citizens, which were then narrowed down via focus groups into 11 value themes. The top two values identified were responsive local government and controlled and directed change. The values will inform Golden's plans and policies going forward to increase communication and trust between residents and the city.
This document discusses a community matters workshop held in 2010 in the Bitter Root Valley of Montana. It includes several personal anecdotes from community members about places and experiences they have had in the Bitter Root area, showing connections to the landscape. The document also mentions using a geospatial collection tool to catalog important cultural sites in the Bitter Root region, such as farms, barns, churches and other historic places, with the goal of preserving the cultural heritage of the area.
This document discusses the Finding Voice project, which uses community-based storytelling to create social change. The project works with students from over 30 countries at Catalina Magnet High School in Tucson, Arizona to document their personal stories and experiences with issues like war, displacement, and immigration. Students' stories are shared through exhibitions, publications, theatre, and engagements with policymakers to raise awareness of important issues. The project aims to give voice to marginalized groups and counter stereotypes by sharing authentic, legitimate, and unexpected narratives.
This document discusses aging trends and initiatives to support aging in place. It notes that in 2030, 1 in 3 Hoosiers will be age 55+, compared to 1 in 5 in 2000. Several areas in Indiana have been identified as Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities. A survey was conducted in 10 pilot communities across the US to understand seniors' preferences to age in their current residence. The document advocates for viewing aging as a community issue rather than just a personal one, and highlights how older adults remain active contributors. It outlines key areas like housing, transportation that communities can focus on to support aging in place.
This document summarizes a case study of a village pilot program in the Borderlands Region. The program provided professional assistance to two selected towns to help plan for village-style growth. Through phases of community engagement, baseline assessment, and implementation planning, decision-makers now support zoning changes to promote new or revitalized villages. Hundreds of engaged citizens provided input with no opposition yet. The program succeeded by going slowly, including all stakeholders, working on each town's terms, and using direct mail and engagement processes to identify each community's vision.
