Cover Page of Team leader Justin Garrett Moore, aicp; APA programs manager Ryan Scherzinger; APA consultant Jennifer Graeff, aicp; and IDB
representative Irayda Ruiz Bode, aicp, conducted an advance site visit from February 9 to 12, 2016, to tour the neighborhood
and discuss issues and ideas with area stakeholders. Following the visit, Moore and Scherzinger recruited an interdisciplinary
team of volunteer planners, designers, and engineers from across the United States. The full team prepared in coordination
with BCC and IDB staff, then traveled to Belize City and executed the project from June 13 to 18, 2016, including multiple meetings
and workshops in the community. This report presents the team’s findings, observations, conceptual designs, and recommendations
for the Belize City Council and the residents and stakeholders of the Yarborough community.
