1 the Mayor 2 4 the Public 5 the Council T.V. 6 3 the Executive Committee Press 7 Rostrum for Speakers The notes which follow are a description of the Pontiac planning process, since it is a good example of this mechanism in action, its advantages and its drawbacks. 51. The meetings were chaired by the Mayor (1 in the diagram). The Council was composed of 36 citizens, appointed by the Mayor to represent various aspects of community life (industry, commerce, the churches, the arts, health, ecology, etc.). Every meeting was open to the public, and the press and television were invited. The Executive Committee was composed of public officials representing various departments or bureaux (housing, education, health, parks, public finance, public works and engineering, etc.). The small square in the middle of' the diagram is the rostrum from which a professional (educator, health consultant, architect, etc.) made his presentation. 52. The purpose of the Council was to debate the issues and to make recommendations to the Mayor and to the Executive Committee. The public was invited by the Council to present its views and to debate the issues; but only the Council could make recommendations. In parliamentary terms, the Council was an equivalent of a legislature. 53. The purpose of the Executive Committee was to say whether the recommendations were practical, and whether they could be implemented. Thus in parliamentary terms, this committee was the executive arm of the process. 168
54. The impact on co-ordination was immediate. The process(l) began with an elementary (primary) school. The issue was where the school should be sited and what part of the city it should serve. Quickly the question became: - - what is the role of education in our community, and in what way can education enhance our quality of life? In debating this question a number of related issues arose. For example: - a role of education is to relate skill development to employment opportunities in our city; - a role of education is to provide services for adults as well as for children, so that adults can learn skills which will open up new employment and income options for them; - a role of education is to provide children with a living sense of cultural traditions; - local cultural traditions exist in the community, and these should be used as a resource in schools so that children can grow up in a climate of cultural reality and relevance; - if education is important in opening up new employment and income options, there should also be new housing inventories in the city so that the community can promote the idea of income mix in the neighborhoods; - why should public money be spent on school playing fields, when the city has a park system; - since the parks are open to the public, should not the school's indoor recreation facilities also be open to children and adults alike in the community; - the public libraries are a resource for books, exhibitions, recordings and so forth, so why should the schools duplicate it; - perhaps the school should contain a public library; - the elderly community suffer from loneliness, therefore would it not be a good idea to locate elderly housing near the school so that the old people can walk in easily and enjoy the library, the arts programs, and the recreation facilities; - since the school will have food services, why not a program to provide at least one hot meal a day for elderly people in the neighborhood; 1) The.American Association of School Administrators, New Forms for Community Education, Washington, D.C., 1973; Larry Molloy, op.cit. 169
