Attachment D <br /> PLAN FOR DELIVERING COMMUNCATIONS AND OBTAINING PUBLIC INPUT <br /> RELATED TO WATER QUALITY PROTECTED WATERWAYS <br /> I <br /> Goals <br /> • Receive adequate and appropriate input on the conceptual aspects of protecting WQP waterways <br /> • Use a process that meets land-use code requirements <br /> i <br /> Outcomes <br /> • Citizens, particularly key stakeholders, agree that they have had a reasonable voice in the process <br /> • Property owners feel they understand the implications of any WQPW ordinances that affect their <br /> property <br /> • Community generally understands and appreciates the need for WQPW <br /> • .Planning Commissioners and Councilors are satisfied with the public input process <br /> • There is no public outreach/public notice basis for appeal of the final decision <br /> Strategies <br /> <br /> ~ • Use amulti-phase outreach and involvement plan, with impact analyses conducted after each phase <br /> and acheck-in with the Stormwater Management Team and Stormwater Policy Team to determine <br /> appropriate level of outreach in subsequent phase(s). <br /> o The goals of phase 1 are to inform property owners and other interested parties, explain <br /> WQPW in relation to Goa15 and other stormwater/natural resource initiatives, and gather <br /> information about land and improvements to fine-tune WQPW mapping. Strategically, <br /> this phase is characterized by informal modes of communication such as a workshop. <br /> The ideal communication would be one-to-one, or as close to that model as possible, as <br /> opposed to, for example, large-group debates. <br /> o The goals of phase 2 are to satisfy land-use requirements, including formal notification of <br /> roe owners and to ather comments f r <br /> p p riy g o the public record. Strate call ,this hase <br /> ~ y <br /> p <br /> is characterized by formal modes of communication such as public hearings. The <br /> decision to em 1 <br /> o additional outreach and in ut strate ies would be based n i <br /> p y p g o mpact <br /> analysis; if substantial changes are made in the mapping or ordinance provisions from <br /> that presented conceptually in phase 1, then a second public workshop might be <br /> considered. <br /> o The goals of phase 3 are to ensure that property owners and interested parties have the <br /> most current information before the ordinance goes to the City Council for final public <br /> hearing and consideration. This is a formal phase of communication, characterized by <br /> legal notices and ublic hearin . A worksho would be considered if si ificant Chan es <br /> p g p ~ g <br /> are recommended by the Planning Commission. <br /> • Provide information in a variety of formats designed to respond to each key audience. Examples <br /> include direct mailings to affected property owners, presentations to community groups, Council <br /> memos and newsletter items to update elected officials, e-mail to provide information to staff, and <br /> mass media to reach the general public. <br /> • Use a variety of feedback options to make it easy for property owners and interested parties to give us <br /> their input. Examples might include recording comments at workshops; making comment forms <br /> available at all workshops and community group meetings, and including a comment form on a <br /> WQPW web site. <br /> Kev Staff <br /> • Therese Walch, 682-8647, therese.walch(cr~,ci.eugene.or.us <br /> • Tim Bingham, 682-4410, thin lgiain(a~l~g.org <br /> _ <br /> <br />
