The City of Rolling Hills Estates has selected Tripepi Smith to provide content development and communication support services. The goal of the engagement is to further enhance transparency and community engagement within the City.

In 2017, Tripepi Smith conducted a review of the City’s communications, assessing the breadth of its print and digital communication vehicles and examining Rolling Hills Estates’ website. Based on their findings,Tripepi Smith principal Ryder Todd Smith facilitated a discussion about city communications with the City Council and offered insights on industry best practices and new concepts in community engagement.

Tripepi Smith’s initial work expanded into a communications plan development process. The City Council reviewed the plan in early 2018 and is now moving forward with plan implementation. The work will make Tripepi Smith resources available to City staff to deliver expanded City communications.

The engagement is being led by Jon Barilone, Tripepi Smith Director, and assisted by Business Analyst Bria Balliet and Junior Business Analyst Karen Villasenor.

“Rolling Hills Estates is a unique community with unique communication challenges. It features some of the best elements of  ‘old California’ with a dash of the equine lifestyle,” said Barilone. “In a small city, we feel it is within the realm of possibility to try and connect with everyone in community. We look forward to helping the City of Rolling Hills Estates with their goals.”

Addressing why Tripepi Smith was engaged for this work, City Manager Doug Prichard commented, “Tripepi Smith is the recognized leader in city communications and public engagement efforts. They came highly recommended and have a strong track record with cities similar to Rolling Hills Estates. We view this as a cost-effective way to increase communications without adding staff – maintaining a contracting model that has served the City well over the years.”
