Communities. 1. CBAs may give neighborhoods a more meaningful role in the development process than the opportunities ULURP provides for public participation. Those who champion CBAs on behalf of local communities articulate several justifications for the agreements. First, they argue that the City’s normal land use procedures often fail to ensure that the concerns of the neighborhood most affected by the proposed development are considered and adequately addressed.250 They argue that the representatives of the neighborhood -- the community board, the borough president, and City Council members -- are not effective in advocating for the community. They assert that community boards are given few resources and little training to evaluate development proposals.251 They note that members serve at the pleasure of borough 246 Id. at 17. 247 Id. at 20-26. 248 Id. at 21. 249 Id. at 44. 250 More generally, communities in many cities have turned the CBAs out of frustration with the lack of meaningful opportunities for communities to participate in the planning and design of federal urban renewal projects, community economic development programs, and land use decisions more generally. See, e.g., Ho, supra note 3, at 11–19. 251 See, e.g., Xxxxx Xxxxx, Issue of the Week: Community-Based Planning, GOTHAM GAZETTE, Mar. 25, 2002, xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/iotw/communityboards/; Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Report Finds Disparity in City Aid to Community Boards, N.Y.

Communities. [Xxxxxxx: facilitator of DIY bio activities in Slovenia] Xxxxxxx says that the most important thing of the community is that you have at least one person that is passionate about the idea, that community is following. That passion has to be transferred to new members. Their meetings must be on the regular basis, so people know when to find you. He also says that an important lesson learnt is to give communities freedom about the program they want to do. “Community has to feel welcomed at your institution, which means that they have access to the kitchen, know the people who works there and attend your events.” Xxxxxxx For example on the “Rover to Mars” set of workshops (where kids built a rover from scratch by kids, xxxx://xxxxxxxx.xxx/en/dogodki/friday-academy-next-stop-mars/), they included a lot of ideas that arrived from participants. The kids identified themself with Rover so much, that they asked the facilitators whether they could come to Xxxxxxxxxx once per week and continue to upgrade the Rover. They met every Tuesday and KI provided the infrastructure with all of the materials, tools and professional help that they needed. They have freedom on what they will do, but Xxxxxxxx also tries to inspire them with art pieces. They finished the “Rover”, but they decided to continue, and in the last couple of months of this interview they have been building a quadcopter from scratch.

For specific events they even create a email group/mailing list or a Facebook group so people can still be in touch. The strategy to sustain a community is much more difficult because people are busy. They simply care for their Skype of Facebook channels and make sure everybody can use them every time they want. So in a way, she thinks the community must be self-sustainable, but it helps to invite again and again the same people to promote the contact among them. [Xxxx: researcher in biodesign, DIY bio educational activities in Geneva] Although he is not very experienced in working with communities, he proposes to have a community manager that give participants continuous feedback, what basically costs money. He also points out a very fundamental issue: this work often is incompatible with standard family life. For example, if you do ...
