INVOLVE Clause Samples

INVOLVE a broad spectrum of stakeholders

INVOLVE. A high increase of participation of the stakeholder can be managed by involving the public in project processes via workshops, i.e. in the design of the mobility hub, in the description of visions for concrete projects, or as multipliers. Another option of increasing the awareness of the public is to collaborate with them. Therefor the stakeholders are highly involved within the actions, i.e. by taking up and implementing the ideas of the participants.

INVOLVE. The NEPA process has a federally required stakeholder engagement process, including public outreach and comment periods, which were adhered to during the study development. Arlington County led public engagement efforts and solicited public participation consistent with NEPA requirements as well as the Arlington County Six-Step Public Engagement Guide for Capital Projects. Public involvement was completed at various points throughout the study to align with the concurrence of the study’s Purpose and Need, the concurrence of the range of alternatives, the concurrence of the preferred alternative and the public release of the Environmental Assessment document. Recordings and transcripts of all public meetings, as well as the associated information materials and summaries of public feedback, are available on the Study’s web page. During the public release of the Environmental Assessment, a draft copy of the Programmatic Agreement was made available for public review and comment.
