City Community Involvement Spillis Candela DMJM recognizes the public scru- tiny governmental bodies such as Cities and Counties face in today's environment. We know this is a very important issue to the City of Sunny Isles, as is the planning and design of an appro- priately sized City Hall. We take our role as Ar- chitects and representatives of the City's interest very seriously. Spillis Candela DMJM has provided public in- volvement services in a variety of public projects, including new civic buildings, which are subject to all the issues related to any new construction project within a given residential or commercial area. Public concerns often relate to additional traffic in the area, construction related noise, parking concerns and other issues. Those af- fected by this project should be brought into the planning process as early as possible so they may understand what the issues are and how to lessen their impact. The continuous exchange of information between the City, the planning and design team, the gen- eral contractor or construction manager and the public is inherent to the success of the project. Public meetings and /or presentations can be held to keep the public as informed as possible, as well as helping to ensure the local coordina- tion of the project. Meetings typically consist of introducing the team, outlining the goals and objectives, explaining the basic process and re- viewing the schedule. The public meetings of- ten involve both the verbal and graphic presen- tation material from those project team mem- bers prepared to discuss technical issues.
