2 <br /> Tonight's presentation from Clarion will include a briefing on: <br /> • Project progress; <br /> • Preliminary outcomes of the second community engagement window; and <br /> • Initial recommendations for the draft Conservation and Growth Framework. <br /> Additional information is provided in Attachment A. A PowerPoint presentation will be provided <br /> at the meeting. <br /> Community Engagement Window (CEW) #2 — CEW #2 tested public response to the four (4) <br /> modelled land use alternatives and concluded on November 3, 2024. The Clarion team assisted <br /> Planning staff with survey development and administration, preparation of engagement materials, <br /> and meeting facilitation. A third engagement window will be held to collect feedback and input <br /> during the final plan drafting process. <br /> To promote the project and collect feedback, County Planning staff tabled at area community <br /> events such as Efland-Cheeks Community Center Back to School and Festival Latino Americano. <br /> Planning staff also featured the Land Use Plan 2050 project at the County Roadshow. <br /> Community Workshops were also held on September 25 and October 3, 2024 at Gravelly Hill <br /> Middle School and the American Legion Post 6, respectively. Planning staff worked directly with <br /> community organizations and leaders to host three (3) community meetings in October for <br /> populations that have traditionally been underrepresented in Orange County land use planning. <br /> Meetings were hosted by El Centro Hispano, United Voices of Efland Cheeks, and the Jones <br /> Grove Missionary Baptist Church. <br /> Upon request and availability, County Planning staff met with the Habitat for Humanity Policy and <br /> Advocacy Committee (Affordable Housing Coalition and Affordable Housing Advisory Board as <br /> guests); Chapel Hill — Carrboro Chamber of Commerce; and representatives of the Agricultural <br /> Preservation Board. Planning staff also assisted several organizations with responses to <br /> questions, which helped to facilitate receipt of comments around the land use alternatives. <br /> Tom Altieri, Senior Planner, introduced the item and the presenters Leigh Anne King and <br /> Emily Gvino of Clarion Associates. <br /> Emily Gvino made the following the presentation: <br /> Slide #1 <br /> Community Engagement <br /> �4 <br /> •RANGE COUNTY <br /> Summary <br /> LAND USE PLAN <br /> • • Board of County <br /> November 12,2024 <br /> WN <br />
