Work Plan Mr. Freeh recommended that a work plan be established to serve as a road map for the first year. A schedule and time table should be included. Questions were raised as to how best to develop a list of business contacts. Staff should contact the Chamber of Commerce for a list. The Committee may want to consider contacting the property owners in addition to the renters. Maybe a kickoff meeting at Ramada inviting all of the businesses. The committee may also consider announcing its formation through the residents newsletter or business newsletter. Rather than a general meeting, Mr. Goblirsch thought that several small focus group gatherings would be more appropriate. S
