  • Vision Implementation Engagement Results Current to May 3, 2021 at 10:45 Am
    Vision Implementation Engagement Results Current to May 3, 2021 at 10:45 am Introduction As the county’s population increases and becomes more racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse, gaps are increasing between users and the recreational facilities and services that Parks & Recreation offers. To meet changing community needs and interests, Parks & Recreation developed a new vision for its parks and recreation system: A dynamic, community-centered system that provides opportunities for our ever-changing community to engage with inclusive and welcoming parks and recreation sites and programming. To help realize this vision, stakeholders were asked to provide input and ideas that will help shape budgeting, planning and community engagement efforts over the next decade. Below is a running compilation of results from various virtual and online engagements beginning January 26, 2021. Learn more on the project website. Compilation and Navigation This compilation combines results from live/virtual and online survey engagements, totaling approximately 668 to date. Over the course of this engagement some questions were refined or merged and results were combined to include all results. Results are presented alphabetically by question and generally remain as written by the contributor or documented by a facilitator. Minor edits have been made to correct obvious spelling or punctuation errors that affect clarity, remove vulgar words and NA / none / nothing responses where appropriate, or protect privacy; and if a survey respondent copied the same response for all or multiple questions, only the first was retained. Word clouds were generated via wordart.com. All engagement opportunities included information about the Parks & Recreation system through this or a slightly shorter video, and began with this statement: Imagine it's five years from now and Parks and Recreation is making great progress on this vision.

  • Gatu- Och Vägnamn I Luleå Kommun
    Gatu- och vägnamn i Luleå kommun Det är nu snart 20 år sedan skriften ”Gatunamn i Luleå” gavs ut. Sedan dess har det hunnit tillkomma ett stort antal adressnamn, främst genom att Posten i början av 2000-talet övergav systemet med postlådenummer inom landsbygdsområdena och i stället började använda adresser som innehöll vägnamn eller ortnamn och adressnummer. Det har även tillkommit nya planområden och gjorts en del planändringar. Under min tid som stadsingenjör i Luleå 1966 – 1982 och därefter som distriktslantmätare fram till år 1993 var jag sekreterare i byggnadsnämndens namnberedningskommitté och tog oftast fram underlag för namnsättningen av gator, vägar och kvarter mm. Även efter pensione- ringen hade jag nöjet att få hjälpa till med arbetet med adresserna inom kommunens lands- bygdsområden. Då tillsammans med Torbjörn Åström inom Nederluleådelen och Roger Palo i Råneå. I det efterföljande registret har jag försökt att ge förklaringar och motiveringar till namnen. För en del äldre namn är det ofta svårt att kunna förklara namnvalet. Det har säkert funnits motiv som varit självklara för dåtidens namngivare. Tyvärr saknas ofta motiveringarna i de skriftliga källorna. Det har därför varit angeläget att försöka förbättra sig. Många av vägnamnen innehåller personnamn. Här har Else Britt Lindbloms bok ”Gårdar och namn i Nederluleå socken” varit till stor hjälp för att ta reda på sambandet mellan vägnamn och gårdsnamn. När det gäller namnens betydelse har jag åberopat sådana auktoriteter inom ortnamnsforsk- ningen som Gunnar Pellijeff och Else Britt Lindblom m fl. Det finns även ett avsnitt som berättar om namngivning av gatu- och vägnamnen mm i Luleå kommun och vilka principer som man försökt tillämpa.

  • Calgary Parks & Pathway Bylaw Review
    Calgary Parks & Pathway Bylaw Review Stakeholder Report Back: What we Heard May 4, 2018 Project overview A parks bylaw is a set of rules to regulate the actions and behaviours of park users. These rules are intended to protect park assets, promote safety and provide a safe and enjoyable experience for park users. The Parks and Pathway Bylaw was last reviewed in 2003. Since then the way we use parks has evolved. For example, in recent years goats have been introduced to our parks to help manage weeds, Segways have been seen on pathways and new technologies, such as drones, have become more commonplace. Engagement overview Engagement sought to understand what is important to you in terms of your park usage as part of this Bylaw review to better assess your usage and as a result, our next steps. Engagement is one area that will help us as we review the Parks and Pathway Bylaw. In addition to your input, we are looking into 3-1-1 calls, other reports and best practices from other cities. In alignment with City Council’s Engage Policy, all engagement efforts, including this project are defined as: Purposeful dialogue between The City and citizens and stakeholders to gather meaningful information to influence decision making. As a result, all engagement follows the following principles: Citizen-centric: focusing on hearing the needs and voices of both directly impacted and indirectly impacted citizens Accountable: upholding the commitments that The City makes to its citizens and stakeholders by demonstrating that the results and outcomes of the engagement processes are consistent with the approved plans for engagement Inclusive: making best efforts to reach, involve, and hear from those who are impacted directly or indirectly Committed: allocating sufficient time and resources for effective engagement of citizens and stakeholders Responsive: acknowledging citizen and stakeholder concerns Transparent: providing clear and complete information around decision processes, procedures and constraints.
