It supplemented the numerous meetings. The community workshop is one of several ways the Town is engaging the community in the General Plan Update. It supplements the numerous meetings being convened with neighborhood groups, civic organizations, Town commissions and committees, and stakeholder groups, as well as the project website, Council and Planning Commission Study sessions, and other measures to inform and involve the community.

The first 30 minutes and last 15 minutes of the meeting used a “town hall” format with theater-style seating. The first 30 minutes included opening remarks and a staff presentation, followed by audience Q&A. The last 15 minutes included a wrap-up, a random drawing of names for door prizes, and additional Q&A.

Small group discussions occurred during the meeting. These discussions occurred at four topical “stations” that were assembled in different parts of the room. The discussions were curated by staff and were intended to orient attendees to an interactive exercise to be completed at each station. The stations also provided additional time for Q&A related to the topic area and the project as a whole.

An “open house” format was used for the displays, giving participants the flexibility to review the information at their own pace. The open house included other exhibits related to the General Plan.

The community workshop's purpose was to obtain public input on the four main topic areas as described below:

• Community Design
• Economic Vitality
• Sustainability
• Transportation
