| Abstract | The following report summarizes a Peer Workshop on tools and effective practices for scenario planning. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) coordinated and led the daylong workshop in Traverse City, Michigan. Presenters from the FHWA provided participants with an overview of the scenario planning process and described available resources and tools to assist with scenario planning analysis. A local presenter from the Traverse City Transportation and Land Use Study (TC-TALUS) discussed population, quality of life, and development trends in the Traverse City region. One of the main issues the region faces is a series of demographics shifts, as more retirees relocate to the area and the population balance shifts away from Traverse City proper. Peer presenters from the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (California) and Michigan’s Grand Valley Metropolitan Council presented information on their regions’ scenario planning efforts, including using real-time feedback to engage stakeholders and both high and low-tech methods for scenario planning. Lively debated ensued in the breakout sessions and discussion periods, focused primarily on stakeholder engagement and incorporating scenario planning into upcoming planning studies in the Traverse City Region |
