STRATEGIC PLANNING

Strategic planning is the art and science of strategic change making, in which leaders proactively invent their communities future. When done properly, it can lead to a dynamic and highly positive community life-altering experience.

3 Calls for Planning

• Call to Explore Untapped Potential • Call for Continual Adaptation • Call for Ongoing Pursuit of Excellence

The cornerstones of Economic Development are investment and productivity. Both the private and public sectors make a contribution.

Investment

Productivity

VALUE

School of Business

Existing Funds Reservoir Property
Quality of Life Increased Private Business Activity

Strategic Planning Objectives

1. Utilize the Restaurant Tax funds to meet the following objectives:
• Significantly increase and improve the recreation opportunities within the County • Invest the funds into a project(s) with a measurable return on investment
(ROI) strategy. Grow the pot

2. Utilize the Transient Room Tax funds to meet the following objectives:
• Significantly increase and improve tourism to the County • Invest the funds into a project(s) with a measurable return on investment
(ROI) strategy. Grow the pot

3. Significantly Improve the Quality of Life (QOF) for our citizens
• Along with job creation and housing, organized year-round entertainment and recreation was identified as a major component of QOF.

• Create quality and constructive year-round opportunities for youth

Strategic Planning Objectives

4. Identify a project that can include and benefit the private industry. Public/Private
Partnerships

5. Utilize as much of existing public assets and funds as possible 6. Identify a theme(s) or brand that can unite our efforts and be successfully marketed

You cannot manage what you cannot measure…. Equally, you cannot measure what you have not first adequately defined.

How do we define who we are? And how do you sell that to others that leads them to action?

Choosing a theme/brand or major project allows the public and private industry to unite their resources towards a common goal.

Leveraging a variety of resources towards a common goal can have an exponential growth effect.

WHAT ARE WE KNOWN FOR?

When people hear of Beaver County, what are the first things that come to their mind.

• Cheese Curd • Great pit stop • Traffic stop • Minersville
Lake
• Water (Billboard) • Tushar Mountain • Hog Farms • Camping in Tushars • Recreation
• Renewable

Energy
• Agriculture • Horses

Which of these can be turned into a brand or theme?

• Cheese Curd • Great pit stop • Traffic stop • Minersville Lake • Renewable Energy • Agriculture • Water (Billboard) • Tushar Mountain • Hog Farms

The brand or theme must be able to: • Be monetized. How does this bring money into our economy

• Houses • Recreation

• Involve or be leveraged by the private industry • Include job creation, tourism, and a quality of life component

If we do not define who we are, others will do it for us.

Economic Advisor Summary

• Many of the residents of Beaver County already own horses and actually live in the county because of the ability to raise, ride, and share their love of horses and western lifestyle.

• We saw the ability to build on an equestrian brand - at the fairgrounds, the reservoir park, perhaps on the 80 county-owned acres near I-15 and other sites nearby I- 15, and in hundreds of miles of trails (with all types of footing) in lower and higher altitude settings.

Economic Advisor Summary

• Of the brand options, the equestrian brand would be the easiest for local residents to accept and, in fact, embrace.

• When it comes to revitalizing downtown Beaver and Milford, there are opportunities with this brand. The retail mix could include:

• Leather shops * Western wear and footwear * Feed retailers * Tack retailers * Finer dining establishments (including western cuisine) * Supporting services including trailer and vehicle dealers and repair * veterinary services, farriers, etc.

Economic Advisor Summary

• Quality of life is leading economic development (jobs are going where the talent is, or wants to be), for anyone with a love of horses, Beaver County would easily be the place to live, raise a family, and retire. Additionally, even those who don’t own horses can appreciate and enjoy living next to or having neighbors with horses and the western lifestyle.

• The equestrian brand can be a benefit to increased usage of the fairgrounds and the reservoir park, and is a perfect fit for the Tushar Mountain and Mineral Mountain trails and overall experience.

Economic Advisor Summary

• The equestrian brand has less impact on the environment than the extreme sports option we looked at.

• Equestrian “hobbyists” (it’s more a lifestyle than a hobby) spend more money, and travel further, than other recreational or sports activities. With the right facilities, an equestrian brand would attract participants from other areas.

Task Force

• First Meeting September 13, 2016 • Goals & Objectives

• Tiffany Hughes • Bruce Williams • Gina Williams • Spencer White • Rodney Tiechert • Drew Combs • Cody Wright • Dallon Bradshaw • Toni Williams • Josh Evans

• There must be a financial advantage. One aspect of the Task Force will be a financial market analysis to determine, quantitatively, the size of the market and their spending power.

• There must be a Community Quality of Life Asset

component to the analysis. In addition to being an economic driver, the Equestrian Brand has to offer quality of life assets that will significantly increase the quality of life for residents.
• The results of the analysis must indicate how pursuing the Equestrian Brand will clearly differentiate the Beaver Facility as a place to visit, live, and work, from competing locations.

    FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT MARIN EQUESTRIAN STABLES PLAN National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior Golden Gate National Recreation Area August 2013 INTRODUCTION This Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is prepared by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA, the Park), a unit of the National Park Service (NPS), for the Marin Equestrian Stables Plan, in accordance with the 1969 National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and NPS NEPA guidance in Director’s Order 12 (2011). The FONSI combined with the Marin Equestrian Stables Plan Environmental Assessment (Plan/EA), comprise the full and complete NEPA record of the analysis of environmental impacts and the NPS decision‐making process on selecting an implementation strategy. None of the modifications to the selected Plan (described below) alters the impact assessments contained in the EA or results in major changes to the alternatives or mitigations measures. This document summarizes the alternatives considered in the Plan/EA and focuses on the Selected Alternative. It includes the decision rationale for modifying Alternative B, Option 2 (Alternative B2) from that presented in the Plan/EA and for selecting Alternative B2 for implementation. The primary modifications to Alternative B2 are the future relocation of the Park Horse Patrol stables to the Rodeo Valley stables rather than the Tennessee Valley stables as was described in the EA, and the addition of a covered ring at Rodeo Valley stables. Other changes included making specified uses of particular structures optional, allowing the future lessee more flexibility in their program. The FONSI lists the specific mitigation measures the NPS will follow when implementing the Plan/EA and explains the reasoning behind the statement that the Selected Alternative would result in no significant impacts to the environment as defined by the NEPA regulations (42 CFR pts.

    Charrería: the Artisanship of Mexican Equestrian Culture

    Arte en la Charrería: The Artisanship of Mexican Equestrian Culture Educational Program by International Arts & Artists Table of Contents: I. What is Charrería? II. Events of the Charreada III. The origins of the Charreada IV. About the Exhibition V. Discussion Topics VI. Resource List VII. Glossary I. What is Charrería? Charrería is a Mexican cultural tradition that stems from the Spanish-inspired charreada. The charreada is a festive event that is similar to an American rodeo in its variety of competitive equestrian activities. Like the American “rodeo culture,” Charrería extends beyond horses and riders to include aspects such as costume, music, and food that bring a uniquely Latino culture to a sport that has its roots in Spain. The charreada began in Mexico in the 16th century when horses were introduced by the Spanish. As the Spanish tried to develop Central America for their own economic gain, they created an entire culture centered around agriculture and ranching in the haciendas they constructed. This is the culture that is reflected in Charrería. Although the main event is foreign-inspired, the culture reflected in the clothing, saddles, belts, hats, and spurs is largely inspired by traditional indigenous art. The Charrería has endured over five centuries because of the strength of the skills, sensibilities, and traditions that transcend regional and generational differences. Fearing the eventual loss of the Charrería culture, a group of charros, or the “cowboys,” who participate in the charreadas, united and formed various associations to preserve and promote this national culture. The Federación Mexicana de Charrería was founded in Mexico City in 1933 to govern the different charros associations that emerged.

  • The Legal Status of Rodeo in New Zealand a Paper for the New Zealand Animal Law Association

    The Legal Status of Rodeo in New Zealand a Paper for the New Zealand Animal Law Association

    THE LEGAL STATUS OF RODEO IN NEW ZEALAND A PAPER FOR THE NEW ZEALAND ANIMAL LAW ASSOCIATION MARCH 2018 CATRIONA MACLENNAN | BARRISTER NZALA.ORG All New Zealand photos in this report are used by permission of the photographers, who wish to remain unnamed. These photos should not be reproduced in any capacity without the express permission of the photographers, which may be requested by contacting NZALA. Credits for Canada photos (pages 3, 8, 9, 77, 78, 87, 90 & back cover): Jo-Anne McArthur / We Animals All other photos are stock images from rodeos internationally. COVER IMAGE: TAUPO RODEO, NZ, 2016 – ANIMAL WRESTLING. FOREWORD From a legal perspective, rodeo in New Zealand is somewhat of an anomaly. Like recreational hunting or animal racing, some rodeo practices cause animals to suffer pain or distress for human entertainment. Unlike hunting and racing, rodeo is not explicitly allowed by legislation and is thus susceptible to the legal definition of ill-treatment, along with its criminal ramifications. The legality of rodeo in New Zealand under existing legislation is hanging by the thread of public acceptability or, in legal terms, the ‘reasonable or necessary’ test. Growing criticism of rodeo in the public opinion provides good prospects our Judiciary may soon accept the view that the pain and distress inflicted on rodeo animals are unreasonable and unnecessary according to modern New Zealand community values. Since 2004, rodeo in New Zealand has been regulated within the confines of a Code of elfare.W The legality of the current Code and its compatibility with its primary legislation deserve serious consideration, especially in light of the 2015 amendments to the Animal Welfare Act 1999 and the growing body of scientific evidence about the pain and distress of animals in rodeos.
