Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

They want to test whether the pilot helped the people most affected. Which evaluation design is strongest?

AOnly collect data from people who supported the plan.

BMeasure outcomes once, long after the pilot ends.

CUse anonymous rumors as proof because interviews take time.

DCombine before/after average wait minutes data with short interviews from students with short lunch periods, using the same questions each time.

Solution & Explanation:A strong evaluation uses both quantitative and qualitative evidence and centers the affected group. Consistent measures over time make findings more trustworthy.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which request is most likely to be acted on because it matches the government process and is specific?

AAsk for ten different changes at once so something might happen.

BAsk the planning commission to place an agenda item for include a protected bike lane in the next street redesign plan and to direct staff to report back with cost and timeline options.

CDemand a policy change that this body has no legal authority to make.

DAsk officials to 'care more' without any specific action.

Solution & Explanation:Specific requests that fit the body’s authority and process (agenda item + staff report) are more actionable. Vague, misdirected, or overloaded requests are easier to ignore.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

They found a line item in the draft budget that could fund part of the fix. What is the best civic action plan move?

APrepare a brief budget note citing the line item, then ask the parks and recreation board during the budget hearing to allocate funds toward planting shade trees and adding temporary shade sails.

BAssume the budget is secret and give up.

CPublicly accuse officials of theft without evidence.

DWait until after the budget vote and then start collecting data.

Solution & Explanation:Budget decisions are a key leverage point. Using a specific line item and speaking at the budget hearing connects evidence to a realistic request at the right time.
