Interactive Group Collaboration & Panel: 

We will collectively choose the top 5 transportation challenges we face in Los Angeles. The crowd will be split up into groups, each group will receive a manilla envelope, blank note cards and sharpies. Each group will discuss the challenge in front of them. Each person will anonymously write down their solution and place it in the manilla envelope. The envelopes will rotate until each group has had a chance to write down their solution/idea for each challenge. We will then collect the envelopes, bring them on stage and put them on a board to vote on and discuss the best ideas. This exercise is to help solve current issues in real time with a real audience.
