PROJECT EXPECTATIONS, FINDINGS, CHALLENGES <br /> The project, as completed, has met or exceeded the City's expectations. We knew that there was <br /> a body of valuable information, reports, mapping and history with work on the Poudre River. We <br /> had no idea of the extent of the information until the first task was complete and we had 160 reports <br /> to view. This, however, only affirmed the importance and potential value of the project we were <br /> undertaking. A challenge we confronted early on was developing a means to inventory the data <br /> with meaningful identification tools and to develop a secure but accessible retrieval depository. This <br /> was explored with the City's IT department and by analyzing other models and resulted in a fairly <br /> simple mapping/document retrieval system using available City resources and the consultant's <br /> summary information. <br /> The information that was able to be gleaned, mapped, and shared in the final project map books <br /> and DVDs has put the current conditions and potential of the Poudre River Greenway in much <br /> sharper focus. With this common "language" and resource tool we can, in turn, expend our time <br /> and limited resources in a more strategic manner and with the benefit of multiple perspectives in a <br /> way that will allow us to develop the Greenway Corridor with more sensitivity and greater intention. <br /> PROJECT COSTS <br /> The project costs included: document research, analysis, synthesis, mapping, graphic design, <br /> meeting attendance, workshop facilitation, transportation, copying and production, final project <br /> DVDs,and other hard costs associated with the Consultant(ERO)contract. City cash and in kind was <br /> also provided in the form of meeting rooms, copying, meeting time with City departments, <br /> development of a laser fiche depository, and similar support.
