1. Lunch and Network
2. Welcome and Introductions a. Larry Palm called the meeting to order at 11:56am. Introductions were made by
all present.

https://danedocs.countyofdane.com/webdocs/PDF/capd/2017/AGMV/SteeringCmte_Presentation_2017-0123.pdf
4. Questions and discussions following the presentations: a. Clarification on Imagine Madison – Staff-level relationship b. Clarification on timeline of game roll out: alpha testing in February, beta testing
in April, final roll out in May. c. Future land use and comp plan updates – there is some lag in Dane County Land
Information Office updating the generalized future land use map in our geospatial data system. Staff will have to periodically update this map as new updates become available.
d. Linking to Madison Metro – simulation design and scenarios will use established rapid transit corridors
e. We already received information from the general public through the survey, the public and this committee (a little bit more informed) does not have enough information to be strategic about percentages needed to satisfy numbers, how do we get higher level information from experts on these topics? – We have our (CARPC’s) projections for a baseline. CARPC staff putting together a technical team, part of whose role will be to vet our baseline and scenarios.
f. As we look into the simulation, we know there is a crisis for affordable housing, low to medium income, at or below poverty, I’m not aware of a plan to help this problem, how will people live if this shortage gets worse when growth is focused on new housing, how do we plan for these people, how will this be addressed? Affordable for single individuals on minimum wage is different than affordable housing on the survey.
g. Compact versus spread-out development in the game – game design does include this distinction in the form of a bonus given to development that abuts existing development or is infill development.
h. Employers can’t find people to work in Madison because there isn’t housing available, there are a lot of comprehensive plans being made currently, has anyone thought to bring together all of the current plans being made to connect the gaps in the region? – great suggestion, something we could look towards next year
i. Presentations – who is giving them, and how are they different from the simulation game? Presentations are to recruit people and groups to participate in the game workshops over summer and receive feedback. Staff will take the lead in making presentations, and will connect to Steering Committee members about attending or supporting them.
j. –Staff have prepared talking points and reference points for steering committee members to share with their own networks. Each folder at the tables contains the outreach materials, and staff will make digital copies available as soon as possible.
k. Our group doesn’t mandate anything, we just educate and persuade, this needs to be more ongoing than just 2018 to catch people up to speed and to reach out to transportation and corridors; suggestion to see if we are able to continue beyond 2018.
l. We need to be careful to not lose the scope of “strategic”, don’t get too deep
m. Are we working on creating scenarios or is that a staff task? – staff will use the game to create categories of scenarios to bring back to this group. The Steering Committee plays a lead role in selecting scenarios.
n. If you send the scenarios out to people who plan for a living, government and general public, they will all be different because of level of knowledge, how will we inform people?
o. Timeline said the game will be available for 3 months, with roll out over the summer that limits school participation, also we have better connections to leaders rather than everyday people, we should partner with technology literacy programs, and libraries are trusted spaces, would this limit the sample size?
p. How detailed can you make the scenarios, how fine of a scope? –can be very detailed, to the parcel level, but for regional planning will be less detailed than that.
q. It will be interesting to see how specific we end up getting; will we get specific scenarios for different communities? - Scenarios will be detailed to do analytics, the vision will be general.
r. Hopeful because we are making this a very participatory process and ongoing, and bringing together many viewpoints and educating others, this field is very uncertain, it will not be perfect, but we have a chance to bring people together over their concerns.
5. Folder contents explained as a tool to engage others by Matt Covert.
6. The meeting was adjourned at 1:04pm.

How do scenarios get made?A scenario is a plausible story we tell ourselves about the future

1. Brainstorm: Driving Forces workshops and surveys
For example:
These stories are a mix of 1) the values and priorities we have today, and 2) complicated things that may happen in the future that affect our ability to have the future we wanted (positive, negative, and everything in between).
We call these two scenario elements “values” and “driving forces.”
2. Assess driving forces according to likelihood and potential impact
3. Establish plausible relationships between driving forces and outcomes
Values - from Values Survey, analysis of local
plans, and iPlan simulation
