    Urban Design & Community Context
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2006-05-11) Dagenhart, Richard ; McKinney, Ed
    Module 2 will present basic community elements and how these elements can be assessed. This session will demonstrate structural elements of conducting a contextual analysis for the social, physical and economic conditions of a community, or study area, in which the transportation initiative is situated. This multi-disciplined assessment will allow the project team and the local community to understand the complex issues related to community development, its relationship and sensitivity to roadway design alternatives, and most importantly, the expectations of the project's vested stakeholders.

    The Design & Planning Process: Developing a Community Vision
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2006-05-11) McKinney, Ed ; Dagenhart, Richard
    Module 3 will present how successfully integrated land use and transportation projects actively involve local residents and business owners to take ownership of the project, ensuring its implementation. The module will demonstrate how the project team does not "design for" the community, but rather "designs with" the community. The session will demonstrate a successful model of community engagement and a successful approach to developing a community vision through stakeholder and partner agency participation. This comprehensive design effort moves beyond the traditional public information process and empowers local partnering public agencies and vested stakeholders to influence the transportation initiative and community design process. Instructors: Ed McKinney, AICP / Richard Dagenhart, AIA
