The Next Meeting is at Your House! Virtual Meeting for SR-710 Conversations on Monday the 21st

The Next Meeting is at Your House!

In a first for these public agencies, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) & California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will be conducting a new, fully interactive Online Open House beginning this Monday, March 21^st for “SR-710 Conversations.” Unlike a traditional meeting, the “virtual meeting” will give the public the opportunity to go on record from home, work or anywhere else; whenever they choose 24-hours a day for the next three weeks ending April 14.

This use of a completely virtual public meeting is a first for government agencies performing public policy work within California. The virtual open house developed by Consensus Inc. intuitively simulates the type of user experience one would normally encounter physically attending a public meeting. “The SR-710 Online Open House is designed to make it as convenient as possible to contribute to the environmental process for this Measure R transportation initiative,” said Lynda Bybee, Deputy Executive Officer for Community Relations at Metro. “Our virtual open house environment will save the public time, money and gasoline. The next meeting is at your house, so take advantage of this opportunity to join to the conversation.”

“The SR-710 Conversations” Online Open House will begin with a live session from 6pm to 8pm on Monday the 21^st. The meeting will be made available on demand at Metro’s web site (metro.net/sr710conversations) for three weeks ending April 14.

Pre-register now and join the live session on Monday the 21^st, 6-8pm. http://events.unisfair.com/index.jsp?eid=1046&seid=30
