As some of you may know, I am one of about 40 members of the Citizens Advisory Task Force to Austin's Comprehensive Plan, known as Imagine Austin. As co-chair of the Communications Committee on that task force, I have the opportunity to work with some really great people from across the city in developing some of the message, materials, and outreach to encourage participation. With the help of the Engagement Committee led by former city council candidate Perla Cavazos, city staff, and the consultants to the project, thousands have already taken part of the initial survey that's helping us develop our vision statement and draft goals that will be fleshed out and refined over the next year.
In addition to this, there are physical surveys in brochures now finding their way around Austin. And there are plenty of other ways to spread the word to your community posted online here, from host it your own meetings in a box, to flyers, and more.
One of the products that the Citizens Advisory Task Force has helped develop at no cost to taxpayers is the following PSA for the Imagine Austin plan, featuring members of the Task Force, including an intro by yours truly. Feel free to share any any all of this information, and take the survey at www.ImagineAustin.net!
