The Community
Outreach Plan
- Since the beginning of Three Mill Creek restoration planning, it was understood that interacting with and engaging with the public will be critical to the project's success. Information gleaned from earlier reports and articles, such as the City of Mobile Tricentennial Green Space Master Plan (2002) and the New Plan for Mobile (2009) demonstrated a strong public will to make Three Mile Creek an accessible recreational destination. Dewberry and the MBNEP made public engagement an equal priority to understanding the scientific and technical aspects of creek restoration. Therefore, the Three Mile Creek Engagement Committee was assembled to ensure that the WMP process was clear and transparent to the public and that all sources of input were incorporated into the planning. Committee members, including concerned citizens, non-governmental organization members, academic and industry representatives, and local and state officials, contributed diverse expertise and knowledge regarding Three Mile Creek and its watershed communities.
