The Outreach Team of the EcoCity Action Group aims to engage the Ithaca community in developing a vision for a sustainable EcoCity. The team will research options, create an educational outreach tool, identify stakeholders, conduct interviews on community responses, and refine the vision based on feedback. Their goals are to engage Cornell students in learning about and approving a vision for Connect Ithaca, which includes collaborative planning for an automated rapid transit system, and to outreach to downtown Ithaca about Connect Ithaca and promote rapid transit.
