Item # 6.7. <br />MEMORANDUM <br />~~ <br />TO: Mayor and City Council <br />FROM: Jeremy Barnhart, Planning Manager <br />DATE: December 12, 201 I <br />SUBJECT: Downtown Task Force Update <br />The Downtown Task Force held its. first meeting on November 28. Due to a staff error with the public <br />notice. (a quorum of Housing and Redevelopment Authority members were there), two members had to <br />leave. This impacted the progress of the meeting. <br />After introductions, the Task Force reviewed the mission statement and the Highway 10 Plan as it winds <br />through downtown. The Task Force also began discussion on the problem statement, the question the <br />Plan is intended to solve. This is important as both an evaluation tool and a communication tool. <br />Staying to the 4`" Monday of the month, the Task Force will take December off. The next meeting is <br />scheduled for January 23. <br />After a suggestion by Stewart Wilson and Nick Zerwas, the Council agreed to add three members to the <br />Task Force. Ron Touchette, Alan Sakry, and Jim Hudson were suggested as possible members. Ron and <br />Alan represent local businesses, and Jim would represent downtown residents. With Council <br />authorization, staff will contact these individuals. This would bring the total number of Task Force <br />members to 18. <br />P9NE~f~ BT <br />N:\Public Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\12-12-2011\Downtown%20Task%20Force%20update%2 Al <br />
