Civic Plus The City Council, Boards and Commissions will soon be receiving training to use CivicPlus®. It provides an end-to-end solution that enables municipal clerks and city staff to easily manage agendas, minutes, and public meetings, while providing the public with unparalleled transparency and access to the meeting process. This means that the Commission packets will become paperless by May 2024. All commissioners will have the ability to use their personal devices or city provided Chrome books to access the Commission agendas and reports. “Play My Way” Playground Project Dawn Larson, Sr. Administrative Assistant took the lead role in creating a community engagement project to gather youth input on playground features, style, and overall design. The project is called “Play My Way” to help create a sense of investment and ownership by Elk River Youth. The feedback gathered will help us choose the best playground equipment to replace aging playgrounds as well as adding new ones to our growing community. Staff will present more details about the project at the April 10 Commission meeting.
