TOOLKITS, TECHNIQUES, HIGH-TECH AND NON-TRADITIONAL/DIVERSE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT HELPS TO MAKE PLANNING ABOUT PEOPLE
Jessica Garrow, principal at Design Workshop, said online
surveys are great for people who cannot attend a physical meeting, but noted
not everyone is signed up for a city’s website or newsletter, so they may not
know about the survey.
“Using yard signs, social media channels, flyers at a
busy coffee shop, newspaper ads or radio ads helps increase engagement,” she
said.
“I also like to pair surveys within person engagement so
you can get the folks who might be rushing through their day.
It is also important to always provide hard copy options.
There are some people who do not have access to a smart
phone so having surveys available at the library, community center, senior
center or other high-traffic locations is important.”
