PARTICIPATION
Group 4 believes that active participation by clients, user groups, and the community is essential to successful planning and design. Community involvement as well as staff input is a fundamental value behind the distinctively interactive planning and design process that we have developed and refined over more than 30 years of practice. Our participatory process identifies and solicits the right input from the right people at the right time, developing consensus out of dissention and ensuring a smooth process.
"They work extremely well with all customers from staff to community individuals and groups to elected officials and boards. Their ability to successfully facilitate a staff and/or community meeting where diverse individuals are presenting challenging and, at times, opposing questions and concerns is a real testament to Group 4 members' abilities and stamina!"
