PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT
The City of Lewiston’s Strategic Plan was developed with public input. Hundreds of citizens and stakeholders participated in this community effort through a survey, public meetings, and workshops. The result is a community-based product that reflects the values and priorities of Lewiston’s community members. From October 2018 until January 2019, the Lewiston City Council and staff held public meetings and met with local groups to share the projects and goals of each department, then recorded the feedback they received. This feedback helped Lewiston’s Leadership Team draft the City’s Strategic Plan, which in turn was presented to the Lewiston City Council. Public involvement was crucial in the development of this plan. All public participation helped to ensure the strategic plan incorporated contemporary community values, capitalized on existing and new opportunities and technology, and provided new residents an opportunity to shape their community. The following subsections summarize the City of Lewiston Strategic Plan public involvement process conducted to date.
