Parishwide Workshop at Hemingbough
by Molly McGraw Porter
The public is invited to attend the parishwide workshop on Thursday, November 29 at Hemingbough. Registration for this hands-on workshop will begin at 5:30 p.m.
Participants will gather at tables of 10 people and play a "game" designed to allow residents to easily show their hopes and desires for the future. This game uses a map of the entire parish to represent the 'board' and "game pieces" representing different development options, such as, housing, mixed-use, office, park, etc. The parish land use choices will be illustrated with real-world examples, so that participants will understand the character of the development implied, and the affect it could have on their community.
The workshop will challenge participants with the task of deciding where new growth should and should not occur within the parish, the general form that new growth should take, and the type of transportation system needed to serve it, as well as highlighting opportunity areas for change.
This is a fun community event, and we need your participation and input!
