DONUTS AND MAPS - Planning begins and ends with communicating future options for a particular situation to groups of people in meetings, workshops, and other similar events. Bringing people together often involves food -- doughnuts in the morning, subs at noon, pizza at night. The food encourages people to come to the meetings and participate. Nothing communicates a situation more clearly than a good map. Mp2planning staff bring the same basic service to every project -- high quality professional planning, inclusive and effective public engagement, and quality reports and presentations. With these tools, any project, at any budget, can be successful.
