Community Outreach
"Community outreach is fun. I believe the community has a lot of good ideas and insights. Many times they know the conditions better than the design team - they are the ones who have the years of experiences. I enjoy listening to community members and discussing ideas. I try to be a good listener to everyone, use a little humor, and be well prepared. My goal is to build trust and make great projects together with the community."
Stuart Emmons
“Stuart came to the neighborhood meeting quite prepared and could have launched into a PowerPoint-like presentation. Yet he graciously allowed the project to unfold within the neighbor’s tenor and tempo. This ‘laid-back’ approach allowed the neighbors to feel acknowledged and heard; diffusing them on their own terms. The dialogue that then developed allowed them ownership of the project and really assisted us in reaching our goals as a collective group. It was a brilliant and bold move, yet it came off very easily. Stuart again showed his wisdom and maturity in a potentially difficult situation.”
