Morrisville Land Use Plan 2021

Online Engagement Opportunities Online Engagement was used to complement in-person events, providing more readily accessible opportunities for individuals to get involved at their own pace and in their own time. These engagement tools are a direct response to a social shift, as residents and stakeholders have become more interested and willing to participate online. Further, online engagement helps to capture input from those unlikely or unable to attend in-person events. Project Website Available Throughout Project – 1,008 Unique Visits to Website (over 3,000 Total) A project website was developed to support the planning process that contained infor- mation and updates concerning the project, meeting notices, and project documents. In addition, the website also hosted online outreach tools, including online surveys and map.social. The website was launched in March of 2018 and remained active throughout development of the Land Use Plan .
