To emphasize a broad-based inclusion of the community, the outreach and engagement process has entailed close coordination with MPDC and the Steering Committee. Activities included meetings with the Steering Committee, confidential interviews with key community leaders, a public kick-off meeting, a focus group with property owners and local businesses, an online survey, social media, and other targeted outreach activities. The following provides a summary of what has been done so far. Outreach activities will continue during the course of the planning process. Since the start of the formal planning process, over 672 residents and stakeholders have participated (see Table 3.1).
