One subsection in particular, entitled `Control of potentially adverse effects generally' states that "review for appropriateness shall be given to potentially adverse effects generally on adjoining and nearby properties, the area, the neighborhood, or the city, of the use or occupancy as proposed, or its location, construction, design, character, scale or manner of operation." The Model City NET Service Office reviewed the referred Class I Special Permit for the proposed use of a dance hall on the property. After consultation with the Police Department their recommendation was for denial of the application based on the following reasons. • Disapproval from community residents. • Increased excessive noise from vehicles. • Dance Hall will increase police calls for service to the area, i.e. drug activities, loud music, youth hanging outside creating disturbances. Since these objections represented a potential adverse effect on adjoining and nearby properties, and the neighborhood, and no remedial measures could be agreed upon by the parties involved, the application was denied. �, 98- 313 December 22, 1997 To Whom it may concern: 97 DEC 23 AM 2= 51 I, Henry Kendrick and Harry Anderson applied for a Clas I Special Permit Use, We feel, we were unfairly denied said use.

A Listening Project is a community organizing tool utilized by community -based groups (often working in coalition with their allies) that, when used as part of a comprehensive organizing effort, can help accomplish the following: * Solicit input, involvement and leadership of area residents in community action projects. * When issues and ideas divide communities into opposing camps, a LP can help groups build bridges and open up lines of communication that were once closed. * Help build partnerships and relationships that will enhance unified community action efforts. * Identify the strengths and assets of individuals, organizations/associations and local institutions that exist in a neighborhood so that they can be mobilized for community action and community development efforts. * Identify issues that people care about and believe challenge the well being of their neighborhood. * Discover potential strategies to address these challenges through the wisdom, creativity and experiences of the people that are best situated to develop those strategies-- the people of that neighborhood. * Help build the capacity, leadership ability and exposure of a resident leadership group or community based organization. * Disseminate information about the work of a community based organization and/or community coalition and learn how they can shape their activities and services to better serve the people in that area. There are 6 stages involved in a Listening Project, they are: Stage 1: Building a Working Coalition Stage 2: Developing Resources for the Listening Project Stage 3: Planning the Listening Project Stage 4: Community Outreach Stage 5: Implementation Stage 6: Evaluation 98- 313 Summary of how to conduct a Listening Project(LP) Here are actions that typically take place in each of the 6 stages in the LP process: Stage 1: Building a Working Coalition * A person or team of people takes on the role of "Community Facilitator" committed to supporting the development of a resident leadership team and helping to form partnerships and coalitions committed to positive community development in the target neighborhood. * A resident leadership team (possibly a neighborhood association, resident council, or community based organization) builds its capacity over time so that it can take the lead in organizing the target neighborhood. * Partnerships are formed between the resident leadership group and "Community Supporters", which are individuals (residents and non-residents) and organizations (such as local government, churches, social service agencies, universities, businesses, technical advisors) committed to the well being of the target neighborhood. Stage 2: Developing Resources for the Listening Project * People from the coalition hear about an organizing tool called a "Listening Project", think that it may be something useful to support their efforts and gets more information about what a LP is through requested materials or inviting a LP Trainer or LP Organizer to do a presentation. * The coalition decides that a LP may be a useful process to help them accomplish their community development goals and finds out what resources are typically needed to conduct an effective LP. * The coalition begins to develop those resources by: - Sending a person or a team to a training of Listening Project organizers. _ Deciding what groups and individuals they would like to be a part of the LP Coordinating Committee, approaching them with information about the LP tool and their thoughts about how it might be utilized in the target neighborhood, and beginning discussions with them about the possibility of their participation and role in a LP. Arranging projects and work so that the LP can be a primary focus of the coalition for a period of 5-8 months. - Identifying and approaching sources of possible financial support for the LP. 98- 313 Stage 3: Project Planning * A LP Coordinating Committee is formed to plan and implement the LP. * The LP Coordinating Committee forms working subcommittees to plan and carry out the various tasks. * The LP Coordinating Committee meets regularly to coordinate efforts, review the suggestions of the subcommittees and make decisions about how to move forward. * The LP Coordinating Committee goes through an extensive goal setting process that leads to the development of a questionnaire. * The LP Coordinating Committee plans the logistics of a LP Training and neighborhood interviews. Stage 4: Community Outreach * The LP Coordinating Committee and others that are willing to assist, reach out to residents of the target neighborhood to prepare them for the LP interviews. * Additional residents of the target neighborhood and other community supporters are recruited to attend a LP training and help conduct interviews. * A public relations/media campaign to generate interest, excitement and support for the activities of the Listening Project is conducted. * Goods and materials from the entire community are solicited to support the activities of the LP. * A LP Training that prepares residents and community supporters to conduct interviews is held. * Neighborhood interviews are conducted. Stage S: Implementation * The responses from the interviews are compiled into a report that is shared with those interviewed as well as others interested in the well-being of that neighborhood. * A community meeting is held where, using the compiled responses of those interviewed as a guide, next steps and action plans are developed and set in motion. * The coalition continues to coordinate the use and mobilization of assets, identified through the LP, to accomplish stated community development goals. 98 - 313 Stage 6: Evaluation * The LP Coordinating Committee reviews the goals that they established for the Listening Project and determines to what extent they were or were not met. The committee also reviews the process of working together on the LP -- What went well? What was difficult?, What did we learn? * The LP Coordinating Committee makes recommendations to the coalition about how to sustain the organizing that the LP gave momentum to. These recommendations are based on input gained from the interviews, planning done at the community meeting, and lessons learned from the evaluation process. 98-- 313 Examples of Listening Projects The United Sisters of Pleasant City, a CBO in an African -American West Palm Beach neighborhood, sponsored a Listening Project to solicit resident input and involvement in the planning and implementation of a youth center in their neighborhood. United Sisters received funding, after they sponsored the Listening Project, and are currently providing ongoing services and support to children and families in their own neighborhood. The "Youth House Center" is currently under construction and nearing completion. The Orange Avenue Family Involvement & Community Development Team (FMCDT), a group of residents in a 200-apartment public housing neighborhood in Tallahassee, sponsored a Listening Project to help build relationships with other residents, educate their neighbors about FI&CDT activities, identify activities and programs that people in the neighborhood wanted to establish, and invite residents to help FI&CDT establish these community -building efforts. FI&CDT is entering its 5th year as a team with 2 part time and 2 full time residents staffing community organizing and action efforts. The Taylor County Leadership Council (TCLC), a civic organization operating in a largely rural North Florida county, sponsored a Listening Project to identify and "map" the assets of people and organizations in the area. The Council is currently in the process of mobilizing these assets to create a multi -service community center in Perry, Florida. The Center will be housed in the area's historic African -American school which is now owned by TCLC. Espanola Citizens in Action is currently sponsoring a Listening Project in their Northeast Florida neighborhood near Bunnell. The project is focused on forming a strong, culturally diverse neighborhood association that can obtain needed public services, and develop family support services and small business initiatives in the area. In Harlan County, Kentucky, the groundwater and soil of the town of Dayhoit is severely poisoned by chemicals from a plant that cleans mining equipment. Health problems are widespread, but many residents are uninformed or afraid to speak out. The Concerned Citizens Against Toxic Waste (CCATW) used a Listening Project to document the effects of the contamination and to educate people. They found so many new supporters that their new problem was "How to involve them all?" The Listening Project helped people bring out things that normally they won't talk about. It really helped with the kidney study we just finished. People were so willing to participate because of the positive contact we'd made through the Listening Project. ---Joan Robinette, president of CCATW 9$' 313 In Keysville, Georgia, African American organizers responded to white opposition and hostility by doing a Listening Project in the white community. The project opened up communication and enabled Keysville organizers to find unexpected support among whites. I don't think we could have done this without their help. I believe they played a positive role in opening communication and helping us understand each other and how to work together. ---Keysville Mayor Emma Gresham, interviewed in the Atlanta Constitution In the North Carolina mountains, a Western North Carolina Alliance Listening Project helped increase public and government support for recycling and environmental protection. A separate project with the Toe River Health District helped women increase public and business support for women who choose to breastfeed their children. I've never thought about all this before. Nobody seems to care what people here in the trailer park think. But now I'm really thinking. ---interviewee from WNC Alliance Listening Project Last week a large factory employing primarily women, agreed to have an electric breast pump placed in their facility. We all feel the project was a huge success. Jana McGrane, WIC Program, Toe River Health District In Asheville, North Carolina, a Listening Project helped dispel misinformation and reduce tensions in a neighborhood fighting development of an agency home for men with AIDS. The home is now in operation. One family with four children had signed the petition after being told that their kids could get AIDS by shaking hands —or if a person with AIDS sneezed in the yard next door. After talking with the Listening Project volunteer, the father expressed a change in opinion. "You know, may if our kids grew up with a person with AIDS next door, our children might become sensitized to people with needs like that." ---Susan Dalton, participant in the AIDS Listening Project 98- 313 �,b:w 3 6 r- ( ) D (/ olv , (Ij r4- () W-k-, *NOJL�k' Pe-,CP�e P ' �IP T hash n1�J; A�y 3'8— 313 1qk Nt w , W�, Nlja--j / Cho�olhke ��`�`1 peGnI� 98 0 Safe Haven at the Belafonte Tacolcy Center 6161 N.W. 9th Avenue • Miami, Florida 33127 305-751-1295 9 Fax: 305-756-1308 Ahl FOR IMMEDIATE RREASE Cautacb Nfryns Rawins MNam -Wft weed and Seed Phone 305.751-1295at. 106 Fax 305-756.130E Pager 305•smW5973 CekAv 305-607-1847 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE CHOOSES MIAMI Miami -Metro Weed and Seed selecW to pilot comprehensive Urban Technology Computer Leaming Center l av t Miami, Florida.
