Check the integrated approachof our harbour modernisation plan
The Harbour (the Norfolk Terrain, Second Harbour and Havenkwartier Noord) is being developed into a mixed area for living, working and leisure. The Municipality will make substantial investments over the coming years to modernise the harbour (refurbishment of quays, boost fishing industry, new houses, cable car, a new art museum). The final plans for the harbour are less ambitious than the plans presented prior to the economic crisis.

commentfield
Use of comments field
• Helps with selecting priorities and decide about impact
• Arguments for the score and judgement
• Stimulate exchange of arguments and communication with team members and stakeholders
• Source of evaluation, score and judgement (e.g. City Master Plan, page 56- 60)
• Reminder to look up things at a later stage
• Reminder to talk with chef, deputy mayor, mayor et cetera about the objectives, priorities, commitment et cetera
Comment field:- interpretation of results- next steps- etc.
Type of conclusions and further actions
• The main priorities of our harbour modernisation are focusing on economic objectives
• The Plan does not show an integrated approach ? The Harbour Modernisation Plan only helps for nine of the 25 key objectives of sustainable and integrated urban development.
• The Plan is rather balanced and integrated ? The objectives that are positively influenced are important. So even at this stage the Plan is attractive.
• Start discussions with other departments to improve and broaden the Plan. All options should be used.
• Check with staff members of other department the priorities chosen. May be they see benefits in the Harbour Modernisation that we did not yet took into consideration
add reasons,give explanations,ask questions,discuss with others
“The restaurants, shops and leisure activitieswill attract more traffic than the old harbourand its old industrial facilities”
Interdependencies:ideas about possibleconflicts, synergies,trade-offs
interpretation, conclusions, recommendations, next steps etc.
Example of comment
It is clear from the results obtained with the RFSC that the main objectives of the Harbour Modernisation Plans are economic. The social objectives are only improve housing, public space and the attractiveness of the area. The negative impact on emissions and air pollution does not show in the final profile of results, because this negative impact is "compensated" by the positive impact on other environmental objectives (biodiversity, improve built environment). Start discussing with other departments and deputy mayor to strengthen the plan. Although, politically the deputy mayor can "sell" this plan as rather integrated.
