Our Purpose
The goal of the Imagine Langley Working Group is to facilitate a community-wide process that involves people in imagining and describing the Langley they want in 2024. What will be here? What will it look like? What kind of community will it be? And how do we get there?
What We're Doing
And Ways You Can Get Involved
The Imagine Langley Working Group is setting in motion a process of interviewing Langleyites to find out what they cherish about Langley, what their dreams or wishes are for Langley, and what needs to preserved in the future. We have an ambitious goal to interview everyone who lives in or works in Langley and any of our South Whidbey neighbors who also want to participate. The working group has developed a set of questions and a way of documenting and bringing all the responses together. We will be interviewing people, and hope to teach others how to do the interviews as well, over the course of the summer.
Later in 2004 we will be sponsoring one or more community conferences where the results of the interviews will be shared and we will be able to translate our ideas into a plan for Langley's future which come out of the ideas and values of the people who live and work here. We will be offering these ideas to the City of Langley as a catalyst for future planning and development.
You can get involved by helping conduct interviews, by being interviewed, by coming to the community conferences, or by helping organize it all through participation in the Imagine Langley Working Group. If you want to participate in any way just e-mail Ursula Roosen-Runge (or call 221-8123) or Bob Waterman (or call 221-8644).
