<br />Elk River- Collaboration and Communications Activities <br /> <br />In addition to continuing to monitor and track federal funding processes, the next <br />phase of consultant services the Tinklenberg Group is providing for the City of <br />Elk River includes implementing the collaboration and communication strategies <br />identified in our initial proposal. The objectives of this phase of the project are to <br />share project information, solicit input from public and private stakeholders, to <br />garner support and to generate a partnership approach to interchange <br />improvements. <br /> <br />Once we have a better sense of the status of the federal funding request we <br />propose to focus efforts on the following activities: <br /> <br />Collaboration efforts: <br />. The coordination and facilitation of meetings to discuss the project with <br />community partners including, Sherburne County, Region 7W and with <br />Mn/DOT District 3 officials and representatives. <br />. The coordination of meetings to solicit support from private sector partners <br />including Chamber of Commerce and individual business owners and land <br />developers. <br />. Attend city council meetings / work sessions as needed to provide <br />information updates on project collaboration and information sharing <br /> <br />Information sharing: <br />. Development of stakeholder and target audience lists for information <br />dissemination. <br />. Develop and update appropriate information resources and project <br />materials. This could include an interchange project FAQ section for the <br />City's web site, City newsletter or any other citywide communication outlet. <br />. Distribution of project update materials to stakeholders and target <br />audiences. <br />. Attend and participate in appropriate, public meetings as directed. <br />. Develop and implement project supporting events and activities. <br />. Assist in various public involvement activities potentially including <br />workshops, open houses, meetings ,and other community outreach efforts <br />designed in such a way that result in: productive input. <br />I <br />! <br /> <br />Depending on the status of the funding 'request, the proposed timeframe for <br />these activities to begin is mid summer and ongoing throughout the fall. <br /> <br />~n&o;&tII^" <br />
