The team is now in the process of developing an energy resiliency framework with more details about <br />how the Joint Development Authority can technically achieve the vision and recommendations put forth <br />in the white paper. This framework will be completed in March. <br /> <br />STEAM update <br />On February 11 and 12, members of the Rice Creek Commons project team served as subject matter <br />experts at Chippewa Middle School for a seventh-grade STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts <br />and Math) design project. During the two days, 360 students were divided into teams of eight and <br />tasked with designing one of the three Rice Creek Commons neighborhoods. Students worked with our <br />project team experts to inform the legal, finance, natural resources, construction and infrastructure <br />components of their plan. They worked under a series of constraints with the overall driving question of, <br />“How do you plan and design a sustainable community for the future?” <br /> <br />A special thanks to Jonathan Weinhagen (SPACC), Mark Ruff (Ehlers), Shanna Schmitt (MPCA), Ryan <br />Streff (Arden Hills), Beth Engum, Mike Goodnature, Scott Yonke, Joe Lux and Al Rupnow, and Heather <br />Worthington (Ramsey County) who served as subject matter experts. We look forward to continuing our <br />partnership with the Mounds View School District this spring. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
