Infrastructure Office Hour: Helping Stakeholders & Residents Advocate Productively

How can local governments turn community frustration into clear, actionable input that shapes projects? Join us explore practical ways to explain technical transportation projects in plain language, support residents and stakeholders to share useful stories and data, and “close the loop” so people see how their input is used. We’ll share simple tools—like one-page project explainers, prompted comment forms, and “what we heard/what we’re doing” summaries—that help meetings stay constructive and move projects forward.

Infrastructure Office Hours provide you an opportunity to interact with AML staff and guest speakers virtually, every Tuesday at 9am to discuss specific grant and project opportunities. Learn about best practices, tips, and tools to participate in various programs to build and strengthen your municipality. Contact Erin Reinders with any questions about participating or the opportunity to present at an upcoming Office Hour.
