Project Overview
Virtual Town Hall
Video
The Virtual Town Hall brought together over 120 diverse stakeholders on April 24, 2020.
Project Inputs
Regional Planning Survey
Documents
In early 2020, the CWC team requested input from planners in our region about how they currently integrate data into their planning practices and what data or visualization tools they are familiar with or currently use. This anonymous survey provided valuable information for the CWC project teams as they build and finalize deliverables for planners in our region to utilize.
The survey results have been compiled into 6 different feedback themes: Water sustainability, wildfire impacts, biodiversity protection, carbon sequestration, planning practices, and collaboration with Tribal representatives.

Stakeholder Feedback
Documents
In three interactive feedback meetings and through an online feedback survey, we received input on all aspects of the CWC project. In general, stakeholders told us they were most interested in seeing the results of this project in the form of geospatial layers, a tool for data visualization and decision support, case studies, and webinars. More specifically, we got the following feedback for each topic area: Fire, Water, Biodiversity, Planning
