WRT | RFP No. 60149: San Leandro Comprehensive Parks Master Plan 13 <br />topics (sports, open space/trails, dogs, <br />maintenance, youth, seniors, etc.). Additional <br />meetings with individual stakeholders may <br />also be conducted to ensure we engage <br />hard-to-reach communities. Besides <br />discussing the park system and desired <br />outcomes for the Plan, we will focus on how <br />to engage the community most effectively. <br />Stakeholders who we expect to engage may <br />include: <br />• Representatives of community <br />organizations that interact with health, <br />safety, environment, and community <br />building such as the Boys & Girls Club <br />of San Leandro, San Leandro Public <br />Library, Davis Street FRC, Barbara Lee <br />Center, San Leandro High School Social <br />Justice Academy, Community Health for <br />Asian Americans <br />• Park and recreation facility users and <br />advocates, including representatives of <br />youth and adult sports groups, Friends <br />of Parks groups, and others <br />• Representatives from the City’s parks <br />maintenance and programming divisions, <br />the School Districts, Alameda County, <br />and East Bay Regional Park District <br />• Members of the Recreation and Parks <br />Commission and City Council <br />• Civic and community leaders who are <br />“connectors” and trusted messengers <br />and advisers in the community <br />(e.g., former elected officials, school <br />advocates, community activists, and <br />religious leaders) <br />3.3 Neighborhood Meetings/Pop-ups/ <br />Community Events (up to 6) <br />WRT, with outreach and engagement support <br />from local community partners, will conduct <br />up to 6 events such as pop-up workshops, <br />presentations at community destinations, or <br />neighborhood/organization meetings. These <br />meetings will provide an opportunities for <br />the community to learn about the project <br />and provide their informed input—in a <br />place where they are already congregating. <br />Pop-up workshops may include displays, <br />interactive games, fact sheets, and comment <br />cards. Presentations could be short and <br />lively “pecha-kucha” style presentations. <br />We recommend conducting some events <br />early in the process, as part of the visioning <br />stage, when we can also generate visibility <br />and seed ongoing participation. Pop-ups can <br />be planned to cover the City’s six Council <br />districts. <br />3.4 Statistically Valid Survey <br />on Community Needs <br />Our partner ETC Institute will develop and <br />administer a City-wide community needs <br />assessment survey with a return rate that <br />accurately represents a sampling of the <br />community population to identify community <br />needs and priorities for the parks, recreation <br />facilities, programs, and services. ETC will: <br />• Design the survey and prepare the <br />sampling plan, in coordination with WRT, <br />City and School District staff. This is <br />expected to include 3 to 4 drafts before <br />approval, and a pilot test to ensure <br />questions are well-understood. <br />• Administer the survey both by mail and <br />online through a process designed to <br />achieve a sample of 400 completed <br />surveys. This sample size will provide <br />results that have a margin of error of +/- <br />5% at the 95% level of confidence. <br />POINT MOLATE <br />VISION PLAN | WRT <br />RICHMOND, CA <br />WRT led a series of public <br />outdoor workshops with the <br />Richmond community.
