Engage Community in Planning/Designing/Implementation Vision Zero Projects (E3)

Develop and implement a community engagement plan for all Vision Zero projects.

1. Work with city staff to draft a Community Engagement Plan (CEP) for every Vision Zero project over $50,000 or with significant programmatic or legislative impacts. 
2. The CEP should include, at a minimum, engagement goals, engagement strategies, major community partners, and a timeline that is matched to the design/construction schedule.
3. Engagement must be conducted in multiple languages, including Spanish and English.
4. The CEP should specifically name methods for engaging people who have been historically underrepresented in the engagement process, including people of color, people over 65 and under 18, and low-income individuals.
5. Brand changes to the HIN with a consistent Vision Zero and safety message. 
6. All communications materials should provide information to drivers, pedestrians and bicyclists about new roadway features, vehicle characteristics and how to look out for each other.
