FBCSP Workshops Update

At the Nov 29th FBCSP Workshops Committee Meeting,  the group was able to reduce the number of workshops being planned by combining some of the themes. Here is the proposed revised formats for the workshops:
                      FBCSP WORKSHOP TITLES
                      Revised 11-29-11


   Workshop 1 - History of the FBCSP (Where it came from and why? Challenges during creation/adoption?) – Panel format
   Workshop 2 - What happens when the FBCSP doesn't work well? (case studies/speakers - Planning, Building & Safety) – Panel format
   Workshop 3 – What happens when the FBCSP works well? (case studies/speakers)
   Workshop 4 - Can a Specific Plan be successfully and safely amended? (Guest speakers from communities that have done so. Lessons learned.) Are there any valid/effective alternatives to amendment? (Discussion) Methodology for Amendment (Creation of an effective, safe Roadmap).
 Workshop 5 - Potential, specific amendments of FBCSP (Which items and         why? Refer back to examples from Meeting 2.)  Prioritization of potential amendments of FBCSP (Which order to tackle them... in case we have limits?)
