There is only one item I would like to add to goal 5: Implement a community-wide emergency preparedness plan.

Agenda Item: Work Session Meeting Date: 6/14/2021 Comments from Councilor Causey prepared for discussion. I don’t anticipate many changes to the goals, but expect there may be a few new potential objectives to consider. The Council will want to focus in on any objectives that may have an impact on the budget this year. Obviously, if it is not an objective of the Council, we should not be spending time or money on it, which brings me to the third item... We have taken on a very aggressive workload. When I look over the number of large projects we have committed ourselves to and the tight schedules associated with each of them, it’s easy to start feeling overwhelmed –and very excited at the same time! The new water treatment plant and reservoir, the Streetscapes project, Comprehensive Plan update, Landmark Drive LID, 11th Street improvements, 16th Street improvements, Veterans park, the new park on Chapel Drive, ongoing subdivision buildouts, and potential industrial and residential annexation and development applications top the list. It’s a lot to look forward to, and a lot for our small staff to handle. I believe we are up for the task, but it does mean our plates are full. I hope the Council will keep this in mind when considering new projects for the City to take on. This email is getting long and I’m late for my date night with Jenny, so let me just say I am really looking forward to the next three years of getting these huge projects completed with you. Please just realize that the next three years are going to be very busy with what has already been planned and we now need to carry out, so there may be some very cool projects or very good ideas that are simply going to have be placed on the Strategic Plan and schedule to complete 3-5 years from now. It’s not because they are not great ideas or projects, but if they aren’t more important than the items we are currently working on, they are just going to have to wait until we finish up some of our current projects and they then become higher priorities. I hope that helps set the stage a bit for Monday night’s work session and saves some time during the meeting discussing non-budget impacting items or items that are of lower priority for the Council. I appreciate all you do.
