Phase 1 has ended and the amount of public participation has far exceeded expectations!
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to IGT's success.
By the numbers, here are the results of the Phase 1 engagement:
- Over 3,300 surveys completed (adult and youth)
- 51 Community Conversations held
- 741 participants, from Marana to Vail, from southern Tucson to the foothills
- 600 random sample surveys completed
Our data team has been working hard to analyze the community input to identify the Shared Regional Values. In addition, our technical team has been developing a Historic Trends Scenario which will show us what the region will look like in the future if we continue with the trends of the past. Both to be revealed on April 7th!
We are now embarking on Phase 2. Please mark your calendar for these upcoming events:
"The Big Reveal: Our Shared Values and the Future of the Greater Tucson Region"
Join us to see how closely our Historic Trends Scenario aligns with our Shared Regional Values. Featured speakers include Robert Grow (Envision Utah), Dr. Lattie Coor (Center for the Future of Arizona), Frances McLane Merryman (Northern Trust NA), and Michael McDonald (Habitat for Humanity)
