5.a. Task Force Prioritization
Foster will schedule a tour of City Hall for November 2.
The members discussed developing a method to prioritizing findings and reporting to City Council. The Task Force reports may include requirements, overall findings, recommendations and
options (short and long term, centralized and decentralized, based on 2040 population growth and overall demographics, with general budget expectations. There is no existing formal
model (forms, documents) for this process. The Task Force members may determine their own process/methods.
Without touring City Hall yet, the general findings of the group at this time include:
City land will be needed for future expansion. The members advise early attention to: location(s), funding and acquisition(s).
Police and Public Works seem to be the critical need.
The Parks and Recreation and Steeple Center are well located and appear to be sufficient.
Both Fire Stations seem to be adequate at this time, although considerations in the future may include response times, demographics (business and residential), etc.
5.b. Roundtable Discussion
None.
