The outreach team conducted transit rider surveys to inform and solicit feedback about the Project from transit riders throughout Inglewood about the project and encourage their engagement. The team also utilized Project boards, video commenting, and Project information flyers with QR codes which enabled riders to sign-up for Project updates and complete the survey at a more convenient time.

Video comments of transit riders’ stories were also captured as an alternative to filling out the survey. All materials were provided in English and Spanish, and Spanish-speaking staff were available.

The Project conducted door-to-door outreach along Market Street, Manchester Boulevard, and Prairie Avenue. These visits were in addition to a virtual business roundtable meeting and mixer as well as project information flyers, surveys and fact sheets shared with businesses and owners. All materials were provided in English and Spanish, and Spanish-speaking staff were available. Both meetings included a brief presentation followed by an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the Project.

The Project holds community meetings throughout Inglewood to help inform and reach wider audiences within the Inglewood community and to provide small groups of community members with a project update, share project benefits and solicit feedback.

These community meetings are coordinated and facilitated in pockets of Inglewood to foster informal discussions about the Project. These brief presentations are a way to speak to the community on a grassroots level and encourage more of a conversation rather than a formal presentation. Block Parties and House Parties are also an opportunity for neighbors to learn project facts, timeline and benefits. Some representative meetings have included Grace Park HOA, Ellis Avenue Block Club, and Carlton Square HOA.

Open Houses are also held as an opportunity for people to view project exhibits, ask subject matter experts questions, and allow individuals ample time to understand Project details.

Key stakeholders and community organizations provide vital input and feedback on the ITC Project. We provide regular updates and presentations to these groups and make ourselves available to anyone in the City of Inglewood interested in scheduling a presentation for a Homeowners Association, a community organization, a group of workers, or neighborhood friends.

The outreach team participates in pop-up community events with opportunities for tabling and booth space. The pop-up events provide information such as project boards, fact sheets and electronic and paper opportunities to comment on the Project including surveys and video commenting.
