Mission
OrangeCone exists to create a Conversation about the public spaces we all use for life, work, play, and travel.
Here at OrangeCone, we believe that conversation is more than just a vote - which is one voice, on one day.
A conversation is individuals, and collections of people, both Citizens as public space users, as well as public space managers and operators, continually talking about the common places we all use on a daily basis.
OrangeCone's mission is to be that welcoming place for Citizens, Governments, and Public Space Managers to come together and speak - individually, and collectively - about the places that affect our daily life, work, play and travel.
OrangeCone is our communal table, around which we can all have a heartfelt conversation about the spaces that are important to our communities.
