Notes from the event:

Gary Gaston showed how the Nashville Design Center has become known for public participation and big picture planning in Nashville. http://www.civicdesigncenter.org/

• Buy Penisole Online Without Prescription, He explained the four tenets of the Civic Design Center embodied in the logo squares: “Think, Design, Create, Sustain”.


• The Center initially trained over 300 citizens in a 101 of planning course.


• They also produced 15 minute TV shows about urban design in Nashville.


• They worked with 9 inner ring neighborhoods on neighborhood plans.


• They established 10 principles and prepared the Nashville Vision Plan


• They have annual “Living the Plan” fundraising events in which they raise $80-90k each year


• They worked with the Army Corps of Engineers on a Riverfront Masterplan


• They developed a set of site alternatives for the Nashville Convention Center and create baseline specs for it


• They work in a partnership with University of Tennessee students

Maurice Cox emphasized the inclusionary aspect of design, that design should serve the public interest and he sees designers as facilitators, problems solvers, activists and advocates.

• He quoted Thomas Jefferson: “Design Activity and Political Thought are Indivisible”


• He pointed to the book by Ronald Heifetz “Leadership without easy answers” as a useful source from which he explained the term “Adaptive Challenge”


• He stressed that the willingness of behavior change determines if somebody has a seat at the table


• He pointed out that “participation enlarges the community’s capacity to accept change”


• He stated that it is necessary to move the learning to a “neutral ground” i.e. away from City Hall and city departments to a place such as a Design Center


• He spoke about the “gap”: “The greater the difference between aspirations and reality, the larger the gap and the larger the need for trust”. (that a design center is suited to build this trust)


• That learning what is possible should be de-coupled from an imminent project  (and rather be practiced on a longer term project)


• He reported how in Charlottesville as Mayor he had appointed designers to every board in the city and how this made a huge and lasting difference


• He stressed how “doing good” alone is not enough and that it needs to be coupled with “design excellence” and showed the Charlottesville transit center project as an example which had been reviewed by a “Design Excellence Task Force”.


• He challenged the design community to come “to the problems the country cares about” (which are likely not design problems per se) and mentioned the foreclosure  crisis as an example.


• He explained how NEA sponsors grants and that a non-profit needs to be incorporated for 3 years before it can receive NEA grant money.


• He stressed the importance of linage between universities and design centers, Buy Penisole Online Without Prescription. The average grants are between $20 and $50k. Half of the design grants went to Universities that had associated design centers.


• He spoke about the “Mayors Institute” funded and organized by NEA which trains mayors (and now also Governors) across the country  in urban design.


• Maurice challenged all present to become active and offered his help and promised to be a friend of our efforts to bring the D:Center to life

Tom Stosur, Director of Planning in Baltimore City stood up and responded to the presentations. He acknowledged the importance of design excellence and that this might not always have been a priority in Baltimore.
