Resilient People, Places and Projects (RP3) Working Group
Resilient People, Places and Projects (RP3): Following symposium events focusing on place-based resiliency, the RP3 working group developed a research project to apply the City’s Neighborhood Activation Study methodology, lifecycle cost benefit analysis and the Envision framework holistically to clusters of capital projects in pre-selected neighborhoods to identify potential project synergies to create increased infrastructural resiliency (and community resiliency) and assess whether such project synergies can be done for less or the same amount of investment. This research project will also focus on ways to make existing community-based processes more effective in translating community knowledge during capital project planning and design phases. The RP3 working group’s efforts to date have generated important insights and possible solutions, and efforts are underway with the academic partner to identify 3rd party grant opportunities to fund continuation of the research project.
