D4 Regional Park Feasibility Study

Hout provided comprehensive public outreach and community engagement support for RivCoParks District 4. While this project focused on park planning rather than transportation, it required many of the same outreach fundamentals central to TCA’s 241/91 Express Connector – clear education, inclusive engagement, structured feedback collections, and disciplined communication across a geographically diverse area. The study required meaningful community engagement to guide long-term planning decisions for a future regional park serving diverse communities across District 4.
Serving as Outreach Manager, Marisa Greenway developed and implemented a collaborative and inclusive Community Outreach Plan designed to reach residents, stakeholders, and traditionally underserved populations. Outreach efforts focused on building awareness, encouraging participation, and collecting actionable input to inform feasibility analysis and park programming concepts.Similar to corridor-wide transportation outreach, the plan emphasized early education, expectation setting, and clear explanations of project purpose to support informed participation.
Hout’s outreach program utilized a multi-channel approach similar to TCA’s corridor-wide engagement needs, including stakeholder database development, community and intercept surveys, digital outreach campaigns, a project-specific website, and printed materials – tools that supported opt-in participation and measurable engagement. Community meetings and virtual engagement opportunities were hosted to share project information, explain study objectives, and provide multiple avenues for public feedback.
