$2,500
Alta will develop an online survey that engages the public, communicates key project objectives, and gathers
community input. Survey results can be formatted as a stand-alone report or incorporated into the final plan.
Surveys can be promoted through the project website or mailers can be sent out to residents. City staff will be
responsible for survey promotion.
Bike Tour
$2,500 per event
Alta will organize and lead a biking tour of the community with residents, city staff, and electeds. Bike tours have
been used by Alta in other communities to great effect, allowing stakeholders to understand key issues and areas
of focus from the perspective of biking. These interactive and fun events allow a casual environment for
brainstorming context-sensitive solutions.
"Pop-Up" Events
$2,000 per event
"Pop-Up" outreach takes advantage of existing events, like the Cupertino Farmer's Market, to reach a broader
portion of the population that would normally not engage in traditional outreach like public workshops. Outreach
materials can be designed as fun games or exercises to gather more input and participation. Alta will conduct two
"pop-up" events throughout the plan process.
