MEETING 4 OVERVIEW

In October, LA SAFE conducted two types of meetings in Lafourche Parish: round

community open houses.

The LA SAFE team met with leaders and potential partners at the city and parish level in order to learn how the proposed projects could align with existing related efforts. This also helped the team identify potential hurdles in implementing certain projects, so they could plan with those obstacles in mind.

The Lafourche parish meeting began with a stakeholders round table, after which the LA SAFE team opened the doors to the community for a larger open house. Meetings in Round 4 helped hone the ideas residents generated in the previous three

evaluated during Round 5.

MEETING 5 OVERVIEW

residents reviewed six potential demonstration proposals for their parish, and voted for their preferred projects at a polling station. The meeting was a gallery-style exhibit with boards set up around the room, so that the residents could understand the LA SAFE process. The boards included a

risk, land loss and subsidence maps; a 50-year vision map for the parish; and a policy proposal board that covered a range of issues expressed by residents in earlier meetings.

Demonstration proposal boards (shown in the Appendix) illustrated six different projects and programs that LA SAFE could fund. The boards included detailed descriptions, concept drawings and example images along with information on cost, location, area, and potential partners to give residents an idea of each project. Each proposal highlighted

categories that emerged in the previous meetings: Culture & Recreation, Stormwater Management, Housing & Development, Transportation, and Education, Economy & Jobs. This provided residents with a complete understanding of each project, in order to help them decide on their preferred proposals.

Residents left comments and feedback on the boards describing what they liked and disliked about each proposal. A summary of their feedback is below. All of the comments gathered are in the appendix.

COMMENTS AND FEEDBACK

A: EMERGING INDUSTRY BUSINESS INCUBATORStakeholders commented that this proposal would help small businesses to start up. It would create new jobs and grow industries, while also providing opportunities to host community events. There was concern that the proposal might not serve the whole community, and sug-gestions that the incubator provide computer training.

B: GALLIANO GREEN STREETSResidents commented that they liked the idea of improved stormwater management practic-es, and liked the proposal location. The main concern was the high cost and the small project area.

C: RESILIENT HOUSING PROTOTYPEResidents commented that this proposal would be great for any location within Lafourche Parish. They believed that the green infrastructure, elevated housing, and solar arrays could

D: GOLDEN MEADOW WETLAND PARK & OUTDOOR CLASSROOMStakeholders enjoyed the large scale of this proposal. They commented that it provides hands-on educational opportunities for students, while managing stormwater. Some residents were concerned with the cost, as well as the prox-imity to the nearby school.

E: OAK RIDGE SEAFOOD MARKETResidents commented that they would like to have a place to buy local seafood. They also

ermen maintain their livelihoods, because it allowed them to dock their vessels during an extreme weather event. There was concern regarding the location of the harbor – that it may be too far south to be effective.

“Wonderful education possibilities. An idea of the way we should build in the future.”- Lafourche Parish Resident

After reviewing all of the 6 proposals, residents visited the polling station and reviewed the proposal selection criteria, which includes public preference as one of the six components. Residents were given tokens to mark their preference for each of the six proposals. They used their two gold tokens to select their favorite two proposals; green tokens for their 3rd and 4th favorite proposals, and blue tokens for their least favorite proposals. Gold tokens were worth two points, green tokens were worth 1 point and blue tokens were worth 0 points.

At the end of the evening, the results of the polling were revealed, giving the participants a general idea of the outcome. In order to make the polling accessible to residents throughout the parish, and to minimize geographic bias, residents not at the meeting could access an online poll for 3 weeks following the meeting.

The Lafourche Parish meeting was held on Monday, December 18th at the Mathews Government Complex. Twenty eight residents and stakeholders signed in and participated. An additional meeting for Vietnamese and Khmer-speaking (Cambodian) residents was held on December 20th. This meeting was open to residents of Plaquemines, Terrebonne, Jefferson, and Lafourche Parishes. Following these meetings, an online poll collected preference input from 46 additional residents. The graph on the right shows the results of the preference polling.
