OCLC Number: 54792263 Excerpt: ... ONSULTATION AND OORDINATION C C Public open house meetings were held in conjunction with newsletter 3 at the Rock Creek Nature Center and Planetarium on June 25 and June 28, 1997. About 800 people attended the open houses. Planning team members and other park staff hosted the open house meetings to talk di-rectly with people about the planning project and to hear their ideas and concerns. Comments were recorded on response forms, flip charts, and through interviews. A court reporter was pro-vided at the open houses. Approximately 1, 000 comments on the preliminary alternative scenarios were received during the official review period that ended August 1, 1997. The range of comments was summarized in newsletter 4 ( http: / / www.nps.gov / rocr / gmpnewsletter4 ) published in January 1998. Public views varied widely about the management of park roads, but there was nearly universal opposition to closing the community gardens, the public horse stables, and the golf course in the park. After the official review period ended, additional letters, email, and post cards were received. The large majority of these supported " Alternative 2 ½, " a recommendation developed by a new coali-tion of organizations entitled People's Alliance for Rock Creek ( see Alternative C in this docu-ment ). Newsletter 5 was published in June 1998 to inform the public of a schedule extension for produc-ing the plan. The newsletter also announced that new alternatives were being developed that did not include closing traditional recreation facilities. The recent discovery in the park of a federally endangered amphipod was also announced. In November 1998, a letter was sent to everyone on the mailing list announcing an indefinite de-lay in the production of the draft general management plan and environmental impact statement. The delay was caused by a congressionally directed reorganization and downsizing of NPS plan-ning, design, and construction programs a
