Tripepi Smith Helps the City of Dublin Finalize the Transition to District Elections
The City of Dublin finalized the shift to by-district elections after engaging Tripepi Smith to assist with and implement an extensive outreach campaign.
“Maximizing resident input and engagement was a priority in this process,” said City of Dublin Assistant to the City Manager John Stefanski. “Tripepi Smith understood this and put together a comprehensive outreach campaign, which helped us successfully transition to by-district elections.”
Tripepi Smith Junior Business Analyst Melanie Moore led the efforts and implemented a plan that included:
- Designing informational flyers and PowerPoint decks for Council public hearings
- Drafting a citywide postcard to notify residents of community workshops
- Producing an informational districting animated video
- Creating weekly social media content to post to the City’s social media platforms
- Writing five press releases announcing the district formation, upcoming workshops and other community engagement opportunities, including map drawing
- Planning and facilitating one in-person and one virtual workshop
- Completing two rounds of community group outreach phone calls
- Sharing community group outreach emails before every milestone and public hearing
“The City of Dublin worked hard to encourage community involvement and participation and was incredibly receptive at addressing community input and feedback into the districting process,” said Melanie. “It was a pleasure working with the City in this effort and getting to help this project through the finish line.”
The City will officially implement by-district elections in 2024.
