Pat, 
 
What do you think about INC sponsoring a Comprehensive Plan/UDO workshop sometime this winter (after passage) to help educate neighborhoods about these. 
 
I'd broached this with Frank a couple of weeks ago and he expressed support in having staff available to help put it on. 
 
I'd be willing to work on a venue and program with the UDO taskforce if you think it'd be a worthwhile endeavor. 
 
It could be on a Saturday starting around 8:30 with 30-45 minute workshops hopefully ending at lunch time. 
 
We can have a few different 'sessions'. 
 
  Definitions and terms to understand 
  Basic concept and outline of planning documents 
  Neighborhood notification 
  Protest petitions 
  Working with staff 
  Policies and procedures for developments 
  Approval process 
 
If we're willing to be inclusive, we might even open up the sessions to developers and real estate interests so we can start working on a better understanding between us (i.e. Developer score card). 
 
With as work as everyone's put into them, I think it'd be a great idea if we could help folks (neighborhoods, Planning Department, elected officials, etc) with something positive like this. 
 
what do the rest of you think?
