Technology Task Force Meeting: March 10, 2021
AGENDA ITEM: Project Brainstorming AGENDA SECTION:
Discussion
PREPARED BY: Aaron Menza, GIS Analyst AGENDA NO. 4.a.
ATTACHMENTS: Technology Task Force Brainstorming
Examples APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Discuss Task Force vision statements and project ideas
ISSUE
In order to jump-start the brainstorming process, City Staff has created a Project and Vision Statement
Brainstorming chart.
BACKGROUND
Vision statements were created by City staff to lead the conversation. Additionally, project examples that
were discussed at the February Technology Task Force meeting were broken out into three categories –
Internal Workflows, Public Facing, Community Projects – and were assigned a broad deadline based on
City resources and project scope.
This document was created for example purposes, although all items listed are reasonable projects for the
Task Force to work on. The main goal of the meeting on March 10, 2021 is to have members bring their
project ideas to the group. We will place each suggested project into one of the three categories and try to
assign a reasonable timeframe. Depending upon meeting time, staff is hopeful we can start prioritizing
various projects so at the April meeting the group can begin project-related work.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending that the Task Force has a discussion on its vision statement and project ideas,
utilizing the attached layout.
