From Dodson & Flinker, Inc
Dodson & Flinker is a landscape architecture and planning firm working to solve some of the most complex issues of our time: how to build places that heal the environment, prepare for climate change, undo inequities, adjust to economic disruptions, and preserve a unique sense of place. We are an intentionally small, independent firm focused on delivering results. Our landscape architecture projects respond to local history, culture, and ecology and balance pragmatism and innovation to create beautiful sites that meet our client’s functional needs. Our planning projects use a design-based approach to help communities build shared understanding and agreement, visualize a better future, and craft realistic implementation strategies.
Currently our town is using them for Vision Planning, and, one of the owners was manipulating the process to the public, by keeping their comments screened out and replaced them to his own comments to other planners. That is manipulation of the public discourse, and it is getting broken. They should stay neutral and transparent, but it is lacking, and it concerns people who participated in their public meeting sessions. Unprofessional!
