E NGAGEMENT S TRATEGY
The plan’s engagement strategy was designed to engage the public and stakeholders in a transparent fashion using methods that best fit their needs. Strategies included in-person and virtual outreach, as well as targeted and multi-lingual grassroots strategies (see Figure 5). The outcome of the engagement process was to involve the community surrounding the study area in the selection of a locally preferred alternative cross-sections for East Lancaster Avenue, Brentwood Stair Road, and Bridge Street and development of supportive economic development and land use policies. The process was transparent, inclusive, and sets the project up for the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. An approach similar to a Planning and Environmental Linkages (PEL) study was used to engage the community in identifying social, political, and environmental items that can be further analyzed during the NEPA process.
