Appendix C Chapter 8 Public Participation
Public Participation Overview Extensive information-gathering sessions were held in the community during the data collection and analysis phase of the Downtown Strategic Plan. Individual and small group interviews were held throughout April 2008, a project website (coordinated by the Village) was created to inform citizens about the planning process and allow public feedback via email, and a three-day Main Street Design Studio and Charette event was held at 476 Main Street. In addition, a Downtown Advisory Committee (DAC) was formed by the Village Board to serve as a “sounding board” for feedback on ideas prepared by the consulting team. The DAC is comprised of many volunteer community stakeholders including: merchants, property owners, other business representatives, members of various community and Downtown organizations, and citizens. Public participation is an important component of the entire planning process, including post-plan adoption implementation. Interviews One- to two-hour interview sessions were held with various individuals and organizations. In general, the shorter meetings were held in one-on-one settings, and the longer meetings were held in group settings. General and organization-specific questions were prepared for each interview to provide a guide to the discussion; however, open-ended discussion was encouraged as well. In addition, a Downtown Glen Ellyn map and red markers were made available for participants to put their thoughts about the Downtown on paper. Participant List The following individuals and groups participated in interviews at the Glen Ellyn Civic Center. The one exception was the location of the Go Downtown! group interview, which was held at Figo Ristorante on Main Street. -
Representation and Spatial Practice in Varanasi (India)
Sacred Journeys and Profane Travellers: Representation and Spatial Practice in Varanasi (India) Cristiana Zara Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2011 DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY ROYAL HOLLOWAY, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON Declaration of Authorship I Cristiana Zara hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with tourist representations and practices in India. Orientalist aesthetics have often associated this country with notions of spirituality and mysticism; tourist narratives sustain and reinforce such representations by describing India as a land of ancient rituals and timeless traditions. The visual construction of India’s ‘spiritual landscapes’ has been largely deployed as a powerful tool for subduing the unfamiliar Other within reassuring epistemological categories. However, tourism research has recently become interested in exploring the role of tourist practices in landscape production. Not only do tourists ‘gaze upon’ landscapes, they also script landscapes through practices and performances. By focusing on the case of Varanasi, the Indian pilgrimage city on the banks of the Ganges, this thesis shows how tourist practices (re)produce and make sense of the city’s ‘sacredscape’. Special attention is paid to the riverfront, which epitomizes the cultural and spiritual significance ascribed to the city. Both Hindu and tourist narratives depict the riverfront as embodying a special power, a unique meaning, whether this uniqueness is held to be a ‘spiritual’ or a ‘picturesque’ one. The thesis analyses the city’s riverfront as the place where tourist, ritual, and day-to-day activities are played out and negotiated, and where the aesthetics of landscape is confronted with the materialities and the practices inherent to this place. -

Two territories of similar extension and with historical coincidences in their development have been selected: the Okanagan Valley, Canada, and the region of Somontano, Spain. Methodologically, an analysis of the content on Twitter has been performed, collecting 1377 tweets. The conclusion is that wineries create sentimental and experiential links with the users, avoiding commercial communications. Specifically, Okanagan wineries establish a relevant conversation network on Twitter based on the high percentage of responses, which is 31.3%, but this is not so in the case of Somontano, which is 12.8%. The tourist attractions most used to create a bond are the wine landscape and the gastronomy in the case of both territories. The tourism sustainability variable remains a minor matter in the emission of messages on Twitter. Keywords: social network analysis; sustainable tourism; web 2.0; enotourism; Twitter; Somontano wines; Okanagan Valley wines; wines of British Columbia 1. -

Bobrowsky, Burnaby, BC, Canada Jesús Martínez-Frías, Madrid, Spain Spectacular geo-morphological landscapes and regions with special geological features or mining sites, are becoming increasingly recognized as critical areas to protect and conserve for the unique geoscientific aspects they represent and as places to enjoy and learn about the science and history of our planet. More and more national and international stakeholders are engaged in projects related to “Geoheritage”, “Geo-conservation”, “Geoparks” and “Geo- tourism” and are positively influencing the general perception of modern Earth sciences. Most notably, “Geoparks”, have proven to be excellent tools to educate the public about “Earth Sciences”. And shown to be areas for recreation and significant sustainable economic development through geotourism. In order to develop further the understanding of earth sciences in general and to elucidate the importance of earth sciences for Society the Geoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism Conservation and Management Series has been launched together with its sister GeoGuides series. “Projects” developed in partnership with UNESCO, World Heritage and Global Geoparks Networks, IUGS and IGU, as well as with the “Earth Science Matters” Foundation, are welcome.
