<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning. PPS would like all Executive Directors to complete the following assignment before our placemaking training. Below are the instructions, due date, reference links, and contact information.
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u>Power of 10 Instructions<o:p></o:p></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white">To prepare for the upcoming training, we would like you to complete an abridged version of our "Power of 10" activity by Friday, July 21, 2017. This shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to complete. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white">Attached you will find a PowerPoint that provides an overview and example of how the Power of 10 tool is used. We ask that you select a Main Street you know well – most likely your own! On the last three slides
of the PowerPoint insert an aerial image of this Main Street, and identify five of the best places and five places with the most potential. Then, choose one of the best places and one with the most potential and identify things you can do and experience in
those places, and other things that would improve it. Please note the instructions and more detailed info included in the "Notes" field at the bottom of each slide. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white">For more information on the Power of 10, check out these articles:<o:p></o:p></p>
