At the recent Community Character Workshop, one of the activities asked residents to compare four hypothetical approaches to Cheney’s future with overall community objectives.

These approaches - illustrated and characterized as "Suburban Cheney," "Collegiate Cheney," "Hometown Cheney," and "Economic Cheney," were presented on color posters featuring maps, text descriptions, charts and photographs.

Linked below are reduced-size versions of each of the concept scenarios. Click to view each one, and give thought to which of the four - or more likely, which combination of them - suits Cheney best. Note that the pages include our estimation of how each scenario serves the draft vision for the plan. How would you rate each? If the future plan needs to incorporate a combination of these concepts, what’s the proper balance?

Look for a summary of feedback received at the workshop to be posted here, but in the meantime, offer your own ideas and thoughts to City project lead , or post your comments using the comment links below.

Most importantly, be sure to attend the next community workshop, scheduled for the second week of February 2010!
