Materials from a professional development session sponsored by NorthSky and Munson Healthcare Foundation and presented by Dennis Meyer and Bonnie O'Neill, EVP of Meyer Partners.
NorthSky was engaged to work with the Recreational Authority and also structure the memo of understanding for the nonprofits occupying publicly owned park land. “This was a unique partnership,” notes Benjamin Marentette, the Authority’s executive director and deputy city clerk. “NorthSky’s Debbie McKeon brokered the arrangement, brought the three nonprofits together, and facilitated a dynamic and respectful framework that gave everyone an equal voice.”
