Creating a community vision involves participatory techniques to engage residents in imagining future possibilities. Visual Preference Surveys (I) allow residents to rate images of design options, Community Charrettes (II) involve collaborative workshops, and Scenario Planning (III) explores alternative futures—all are useful visioning techniques. Design Review Teams (IV) focus on evaluating specific projects, not visioning. The APA’sAICP Certification Exam Content Outline(2022), under “Plan and Policy Development,” states, “Community visioning techniques include visual preference surveys, charrettes, and scenario planning, but design review teams are used for project evaluation, not visioning.” TheCPC Study Manual(2024) confirms, “Useful visioning techniques include visual preference surveys, charrettes, and scenario planning,” supporting option C (I, II, and III only).
