VI. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION SUMMARY A. Visioning Process The City of Sunny Isles Beach engaged in an extensive community visioning process in order to guide this Evaluation and Appraisal Report process and the proposed EAR amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. At the outset of the process, the City appointed a Manager's Informal Fact Finding Committee comprised of ten residents, business owners and community leaders in order to provide direction and feedback. The Fact Finding Committee met with City staff and consultants on June 19, August 27, and November 10, 2015, providing valuable feedback on the project scope, survey, public involvement process, and interim recommendations. _ On June 8, 2015 the City conducted a Town Hall meeting that had over 100 attendees from the public. The attendees were split into seven breakout groups and led through a facilitated visioning exercise which yielded over 200 recorded comments. On September 1, 2015 the City conducted a charrette to focus on transportation issues for the concurrent Transportation Master Plan process. Charrette attendees were led through a facilitated Transportation Visioning Exercise during which they were challenged to graphically depict ideas for improvements to the City's multimodal transportation system. On October 5, 2015 a third Town Hall meeting was conducted in order to present the results of the previous Town Hall and charrette, and to receive feedback on the preliminary recommendations. The verbatim flip chart transcripts from the Town Hall meetings, graphic charrette results, presentations, and related materials are attached to this report as Appendix B. iE ,� 9 s I ,.�- 1 1, tiuPt' 1r' w j i t tS t,s�S r. _ 4 r �9' lil V'• - puff 1 1041 /4 A. 1 it 4 1 ---= . d?
