PAD 345 7-1 video discussion

The general public and stakeholders have a right to be kept informed about local issues that

touch and impact the community. Sharing information about local concerns will help government

leaders build solid relationships with the individuals they serve. Involving the public in the

decision-making process so that they are informed and have the chance to voice their thoughts

will assist to create a dialogue for future policy and procedure development and implementation.

To even present this proposal to the legislature, all three stakeholders must all agree or be in the

majority of agreement. Hence, if they all desire a new arena and work together to argue why it is

a good idea, they will have a better chance of influencing it.

Using a hint from previous President Obama, I believe using the Ladder of Engagement to

develop a new ice hockey facility in Midtown would be a successful framework. Four phases

would be implemented: First, raise public awareness by informing and educating the public in

order to encourage participation. Informing the community on interests around a hockey arena/

ice skating rink. Placing an inquiry on the websites of universities and local communities to

spark a discussion for people who are interested, or to present the concept to them. The

university, in particular, would be interested in adding a new sport to the institution because it

has already had success with its athletic departments.

Knowledge: dissemination of information to the public and stakeholders about plans to grow the

neighborhood further by constructing a hockey arena. The general people will have a greater

grasp of the process and their roles in achieving the objective. Victor Morrison, a corporate

contributor with links to the University, is important in state politics, and is a benefactor, would

be a fantastic asset to assist advocates for the facility, in my opinion.

Engagement: establishing an accessible approach and allowing the public to engage in the

implementation will have two effects: first, it will demonstrate openness during this process. And

two, the people will have more faith in government procedures and local leaders. And it may be

useful in future policy improvements.

Partnership: bringing united municipal, business, and government leaders will assist assure the

success of developing a hockey arena. To guarantee that this new arena has a good impact on the

whole community, all stakeholders will engage in an equal weighted partnership. This will entail

stakeholders being an important element of the project's finance, which will be on everyone's

attention, notably the public. When a tax increase is adopted, the public needs to know how, why,

and how it will affect them personally.

By emphasizing that every participant has a role to play in the process and will be held

responsible for their contributions at all levels of policy creation. Being explicit and direct in the

venture ’s design, phases, and measures to assist assure a satisfactory aim.
