[CANUFNET] Community based planning

[BDoff at thunderbay.ca]

I’m under the notion that successful city planning requires planners to be 
in-tune with their community’s true values and vision in order to 
appropriately and realistically plan for the future.  In the same manner, 
city foresters need to determine the heart and soul of their community 
before their planning process can be truly effective.  We are presently 
exploring how we can accomplish this in Thunder Bay as we develop our 
urban forest master plan. How would you approach this?  What values are 
essential in influencing your plan?  Would you work through a community 
based steering team?  What questions would you ask?  Any insight would be 
helpful!
