What is CTAP? • The Community Technical Assistance Program • A regionally focused effort to support towns • The types of assistance communities could receive were not predetermined • Involves local governments, local nonprofits, and state government agencies
Why CTAP? • During the development of the Salem to Manchester project, the public raised issues relative to growth. • The NH Department of Transportation responded by initiating CTAP.
Guiding Principles • Not expert driven • Raise the base level of knowledge of all participants • Support building of positive relationships between the wide range of participants • No “silver bullets” • Meets the needs of local communities
Twenty Years from now….if there is sustained growth…How do you want this region and your community to look, to feel, to have as a home? Begin with the Vision
Steps to Achieve the Vision • Large group visioning process establishes a shared vision (December 2005) • Prioritization process identifies multiple themes, strategies to realize the vision, & obstacles to success pertaining to the shared vision (winter/spring 2005/2006 meetings) • Multi Stakeholder Steering Committee works to develop approaches to achieve theme objectives (spring meetings 2006)
Steps to Achieve the Vision (cont.) • Themed Working Groups develop detailed priorities to achieve their theme objectives (summer 2006) • Theme Working Group Co-Chairs meet to discuss priority overlap and develop year one programs (August 2006) • Steering Committee approves Year One Programs and determines budget (Sept. 14, 2006)
Steps to Achieve the Vision (cont.) • Getting “buy in” ~ Programs are presented to the CTAP community (September 28, 2006)
Implementation • Once the programs are accepted by the communities we can move into an implementation phase
