Youth Outreach. Youth are the future of the community and integrating their concepts and ideas into the General Plan can lead to a more holistic vision. Mintier Harnish will work with City staff, local schools, and local community programs to identify youth leaders to participate in focused youth workshops. The workshops will either be held with the same group of students twice to facilitate an ongoing conversation or will involve two separate groups to broaden the reach of this effort. The workshops will focus on educating young people on the planning process and soliciting their input through engaging activities and discussion.
