The workshop started off with a review of the 11 design concepts for the Annex site that were created at the first community workshop (see below).

The consultants working with the City and community on the master planning effort then discussed how they distilled the 11 design concepts info four new, synthesized concepts.

Concept A "Minimal Improvements, Passive Use" Concept B "Culture, Agriculture and Passive Use" Concept C "Culture, Agriculture and Active Use" Concept D "Active Sports"

Working in small groups, workshop participants were asked to evaluate each design concept and then compare the results with other group members.

Workshop participants were also provided an opportunity to suggest modifications/refinements to the four design concepts.
