“Even the journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step” – Chinese Proverb How will the Vincent Vision 2024 be accomplished? The Vision of Vincent 2024 project is an ambitious project that will be completed in a series of steps. Based on the internationally acclaimed Oregon Model of Community Visioning, each stage of the project will focus on one or two of five key questions:
The Vincent Vision 2024 project has been designed in three stages to address these important questions in planning for the future of Vincent.
The Three Stages Stage 1: Understanding Vincent - the past and the present This stage will involve building a profile and understanding about the social, environmental and economic characteristics of Vincent, its strengths, current issues, trends and community values. This will provide an objective foundation of information for the development of the vision and a factual context within which choices for the future may be considered. Stage 2: Creating the Vision - the blue print for the future. This stage will involve developing and articulating an overarching vision for what the community wishes Vincent to become in the future. Vision statements will also be developed for key focus areas, together with illustrated place-based visions for key activity centres. Stage 3: Achieving the Vision - action and keeping on track.This stage will involve formulating strategies and actions necessary for the Town Planning Scheme to move Vincent in the direction of its vision for the future. A Framework for monitoring, measuring and evaluating progress toward the vision will also be developed. Project Structure The project structure sets out the framework by which the process for the Town of Vincent Community Visioning project will be managed and coordinated. Because community visioning is fundamentally a collaborative process that depends upon the involvement of local residents, key stakeholders, businesses and civic groups, as well as Elected Members and Council staff, the project structure should reflect wide involvement and should foster cooperation and partnership. Project Reference Group The Project Reference Group would meet every 4-6 weeks at key stages in the process. Community Perspectives will facilitate meetings and regular 'project updates' will be provided throughout the project. The primary role of the Project Reference Group is to provide direction and support to the project. Terms of reference
