Ground Rules• The Summit is where we get ideas on the table. It is NOT where we solve

problems. • Anyone can speak to a challenge, concern, or action tonight, but no person

can occupy the microphone for more than two minutes in total other than the moderator or a presenter. Use your time wisely. • Nothing is ultimately removed from or added to the Quality of Life Plan unless

75% of those gathered agree. Everyone can vote. Everyone can speak.

Summit Guidelines

• Be kind. Even if we disagree, our goal is to leave tonight as neighbors. Be constructive. Use your time to be part of the solution and not as an opportunity to complain. • Share your name before you speak• If you wish to speak on an issue, you must use a microphone so all can hear.

Summit Guidelines

• Present an idea at a Neighborhood Summit and propose a taskforce to explore the idea• You will need 50% of the summit attendee vote to form a taskforce• If you “win the vote”, schedule a time to meet with the taskforce after the

summit to flesh out the idea. Attend the next Summit and present your findings and action item. • You will need 75% of the summit attendee vote to have the action item added

to the Quality of Life plan.

Adding Items to the Plan

• If you don’t “win the vote,” don’t give up! Use the feedback received from the neighbourhood to make your idea better than before. Present your idea again at a future summit.

Adding Items to the Plan

Instructions• You will hear from neighbors who would like to propose an idea.• Each presenter has 2 minutes to introduce his/her idea.• Spend 20 minutes discussing your favourite proposal with the

presenter, and developing a SMART goal for the potential taskforce• Re-convene. Presenters will present their SMART goals for the vote.• Attendees will vote on proposals and fill out their summit

engagement forms.
