A8 Planning dialogue - Gilbert Peiker - 20th November 2017 - NETLIPSE Munich Autobahndirektion Südbayern Planning dialogue – lessons learned

➢ Fixing the boundaries (possibilities and limits) • Don‘t raise false expectations • Comunication of information -> yes • Obtain arguments (consultation) -> yes • Give everybody a say (cooperation) -> where ever possible • but: planning with abroad agreement is not easy to attain ➢ Be open and transperant ➢ Forming opinions instead of voting ➢ Making technology understandingly („keep it simple“) ➢ Limiting time and space of the dialogue („come to an end“) ➢ External moderation
