As part of the public process a concise, informative and visually captivating vision map capturing the breadth and depth of the process was developed. Elements include the project's primary goals and objectives, general project focus area, key landmarks and points of interest, and basic physical and topographical features. Imperative in the creation of this map was knowing the public would have a strong sense of ownership and familiarity with it.

One challenge was to maintain consistency of look and clarity in message between the large-format visuals used in public workshops and the same information as would be presented in the final project report. A large amount of information had to fit in a limited amount of space. To accomplish this the study area was split into two sections, north and south, each of which took up a full spread (8-1/2" x 28"). Shown here is the "Recreation & Tourism Opportunities" graphic as shown in the report.
