DEVELOPMENT OF A WORKSHOP METHOD FOR CONSENSUS BUILDING ON THE REDUCTION OF THE PUBLIC FACILITIES

In reorganization of public facilities, there is no established method to get inhabitants’ consensus although it is the most important. This study develops the workshop method by case study in a largely merged city. The evaluation survey identified the need to share workshop objectives, importance of time allocation and discussion continuity in workshops, and the need to functional considerations in each room. Finally, we constructed a workshop flow model. In the first workshop they would discuss on from the whole to individual facilities, followed by facility evaluation and reorganization methods in next workshops. Then, the reorganization plan would be summarized.
