This is it… Our third, and final, round of Community Meetings are next week. We’ll be focusing on prioritization — the most important step for a community-wide initiative.
The Basics
- October 23 at the Village on Park Atrium (2300 S Park St)
- October 24 at Lussier Community Education Center (55 S Gammon Rd)
- October 25 at Goodman Community Center (149 Waubesa St)
All meetings are from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM (open house from 6:00 – 6:30; group activities from 6:30 – 8:00). Refreshments and childcare will be provided. Spanish and Hmong interpreters will be at each meeting. Please see attached flyer.
The Activities
Join your fellow community members to participate in interactive activities focusing on the big question: What’s MOST important?
Strategies and Actions
Specifically, small groups will collaboratively determine which Strategies are the most important related to a particular topic, and suggest Actions that can be done to accomplish those important Strategies. There will be three rounds, so there’s plenty of time to discuss multiple topics!
Where should we prioritize growth?
Madison is a very popular place. We are expected to add 40,000 housing units between now and 2040. Meeting participants will discuss where these housing units should go through an interactive mapping activity. The activity includes reviewing multiple informative maps, and placing stickers on a base map showing where you believe growth should occur. This will also include a group discussion to share why you chose to put your dots where you did.
Episode #3 – Imagine Madison Mini-Documentary
Episode #3 of our interview mini-documentary has been posted. Check it out to see what your neighbors want for Madison’s future. If you missed Episode #2, you can view it here. Last, but certainly not least, the Imagine Madison Promotional Video won a 2017 Best of the Midwest Festival Award of Excellence at the Wisconsin Community Media Conference. Way to go, Madison City Channel!
Last call — Planning Pop-Ins
Do you want to have a lively discussion and activity at your organization’s next meeting? Invite us! We’ll tailor an interactive conversation based on what works best for your group. The best part — your conversation will help inform the future of Madison.
