She suggested having sessions <br /> at night when working people could attend. <br /> Emily Gvino said that they have heard that feedback and will incorporate it into future <br /> sessions. <br /> Commissioner Richards asked if Clarion Associates would increase the in-person <br /> opportunities since there has been more engagement during in-person activities. <br /> Emily Gvino said they are trying to increase the online engagement to capture youth <br /> feedback. <br /> Commissioner Richards asked if Clarion used TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter. <br /> Emily Gvino said yes, and that they work with the county's Planning Department and <br /> Community Relations Department to get information out on the various social media platforms. <br /> Vice-Chair Greene said the in-person meetings were a richer experience. Commissioner <br /> Portie-Ascott asked if there were attendees who went to both sessions, or if there are people who <br /> filled out surveys twice, or if there are people who went to an in-person session and filled out a <br /> survey online. <br /> Emily Gvino said the last question was harder to answer because they did not have a way <br /> to determine that. She said they have a way to prevent people from filling out the online survey <br /> multiple times. She said there were probably a few people who went to more than one in-person <br /> meeting. <br /> Commissioner Hamilton said someone in the community told her that they had gotten <br /> stuck filling out the online survey and had abandoned it. She asked Clarion to review their <br /> interface to see if there are any improvements they could make. <br /> Emily Gvino said she would look into it. She explained how the online survey was <br /> structured. <br />
