OUR CHARACTER TOOL
Our questions are designed to communicate and articulate the complexities of character.
SLIDE 25
- Every country town has some elements that
are classic, but majority are unique
- Similar issues but different solutions, stories
and potential futures
- Future planning can be better informed by
attributes that identify uniqueness of place
- Consultation with the community is essential
in identifying these unique attributes
- Traditional engagement methods are not
sufficient to explore complexities and characteristics of ‘character’
- Engagement tools can be used to communicate
planning jargon and assist community in articulating ‘character’
