and Implementation- Oriented. Achieving such results requires a well - considered Work Plan, and a depth of experience with visioning processes that incorporate market -based designs, economic feasibility, and "constructability ". Consensus -Based means that the community and stakeholders are actively involved in the development of the plan. We believe there is no standard participation approach that works well for all projects. A custom stakeholder participation methodology must be crafted for each context if the involvement is to be meaningful and beneficial. We will work with local community development corporations, faith -based organizations, and neighborhood organizations to maximize outreach towards the general public. The Torti Gallas Team will refine the public participation plan, together with the Department of Community Investment and the Steering Committee, so that a consensus process can be created that will produce the most effective results for the community. Our proposal is to work intimately with the Steering Committee and project staff through an intensive initial strategy session, and continuously monitor progress of the planning process. We will conduct stakeholder discussions representing a variety of particular interests and perspectives, and host public meetings at key points in the process. Reality- Testedmeans that the recommendations set. forth in the Plan will be feasible from a wide variety of perspectives including environmental, marketing /branding, financial, traffic, infrastructure and other practical considerations. This is to assure that the Vision is achievable and sustainable over time. Visioning that creates a sense of expectation which cannot be ultimately delivered can dilute precious resources and subvert otherwise well- intended planning efforts. Implementation- Oriented means that the Master Plan must go well beyond establishing simple goals and objectives. It recommends very specific projects and programmatic actions necessary to achieve the consensus Vision. The Master Plan must include an identification of regulatory obstacles, an achievable implementation process, and the identification of project and program priorities and specific responsibilities. We want to deliver specific tactical interventions that can be completed immediately upon completion of the master planning process. SCOPE OF WORK The following provides an overview of our proposed Work Plan. Our scope for West Side Corridors Market Analysis and Master Plan breaks down into four Phases of Work.
