To provide a unified approach to public involvement and context sensitive solutions, a Context Sensitive Public Involvement Plan (CSPIP) has been prepared for the St. Francis/St. Michaels Interchange Study (Study) (PDF). The CSPIP combines the public involvement and context sensitive solutions planning conducted in accordance with the NMDOT’s Location Study Procedures (2015)– the policy document followed by the NMDOT to comply with federal transportation planning and environmental regulations. The goals of the CSPIP are:
Public Involvement Plan
- To establish the Study context and identify major community values;
- To identify the Study stakeholders, the methods to inform and involve them, and the approaches to resolve issues, concerns, and conflicts that may arise; and
- To develop a decision-making process that is sensitive to the Study context, involves stakeholders in a meaningful way, and leads to the development of a preferred alternative that is consistent with the transportation, environmental, cultural, community, land use, and economic contexts of the Study area.
