Community Engagement + Pre-Referendum Services
A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH No one knows the community better than the citizens themselves, so it is imperative they are involved it he planning process. There are a number of decisions each District will need to make as part of their facility planning, including the development of an effective community engagement plan. Commitment to Educating Your Community: The ISG Difference A successful bond referendum will be the result of a highly engaging pre-referendum campaign. We know that people are more likely to support a bond, if they thoroughly understand the needs of the District and how the proposed projects address those needs. ISG’s project strategist and multi-disciplinary marketing team have the expertise to create simple, understandable messages and a strategic communication plan that reaches the various demographics of your community. Our team is experienced in conducting facility tours, in-person meetings, and virtual forums, facilitating focus groups with various users, and developing content that is deployed through multiple mediums to educate citizens on the needs of a District. Our listen-first approach allows our team of experts to hear the needs and wishes of the proposed spaces and create concepts that meet those expectations. Then, by sharing the plans with a wider cast of users and community members, additional feedback on design is gathered, as well as a greater number of citizens gain an understanding of the need for each project.
