Imaginable Guidelines - Thompson

On Wednesday June 5th more than 60 Thompson residents and town staff participated in a civic planning game at the town library, with a  goal of prompting in-depth discussion of a communal vision for the  future of Thompson in general, and the Route 12/131 downtown area in particular. Participants played a game using cards illustrating different design or governance concepts, based on the game "Imaginable Guidelines" by Turkish architect Alexis Sanal. The players organized their cards according to whether or not they felt those concepts are important to Thompson's future. By the end of the night, everyone had shared their own priorities, and had learned about what others felt were important issues for the town.
