/3. F: J.
CITY OF SHAKO PEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Establish Workshop Date
DATE: January 5,2010
Comment:
Introduction:
The City Council is asked to establish three dates to meet to discuss topics which would
not otherwise be easily handled during a regular council meeting.
Background:
Three workshop meetings are requested to address the following;
1. Two Years Goals and Obiectives Retreat--Following the election of each new Council,
it has been the practice of the City Council to establish Goals and Objectives for the City
for the ensuing two years. This has most recently been done away from City Hall (the
previous three have been held at a training room at the Police Building). The workshop
would be taped for cablecasting at a later time.
Recommendation: January 26th, 7 p.m. Police Training Room.
2. SCALE Planning Fundamentals Meeting--This would be a joint meeting with the City
Council and Planning Commission. This would be a sequel to a session done last year
(the Council may recall an exercise with Lego blocks). Staff from SCALE-member
communities would lead this planning exercise. The purpose is for participants to learn
more of the fundamentals of planning to benefit transportation, land use, economic
development, and other governmental planning activities. The session would also
provide more information on the SCALE joint economic development/land
use/transportation planning activities
Recommendation: Tuesday, February 9th, 7 pm City Council Chambers
3. River Crossing Implementation Cooperative (RCIC) Discussion--This will be a joint
meeting between the City Council and the Scott County Board. The purpose would be to
discuss implementation of a proposed agreement for the TH 41 River Crossing, as drafted
by participants in the TH 41 RCIC, and the resulting short and medium, and long-term
impacts. There will also be an opportunity to discuss other issues with the Scott County
,board should there be a desire to do so.
Recommendation: Tuesday, February 23rd, 7pm location to be determined (City Council
Chambers or County BoardRoom-either location has videotaping capabilities).
, .
Relationship to Visioning:
The discussion of goals and objectives supports all five ofthe City's Goals: A-E
The two February meetings support Goal D: Vibrant, Resilient, and Stable.
Recommendation:
I recommend that the three meetings be scheduled as outlined above.
Action Required:
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, set meetings for the following:
1. Retreat to establish Two Years Goals and Objectives for the City for 2010-11-
7 p.m. Tuesday, January 26th in the Police Training Room.
2. Joint Meeting with the Planning Commission to discuss SCALE planning
fundamentals-7 p.m. Tuesday, February 9th City Council Chambers.
3. Joint Meeting with Scott County Board -7p.m. Tuesday, February 23, with the
location to be determined.
