Regular City Council Meeting Monday,January 23,2012 Page 26 Councilmember McGehee noted this could be derived from revisions to the report received tonight from staff. Mayor Roe suggested that the enhanced version could also be discussed at future meetings; with staff and Councilmember discussions for strategic planning focus- ing on short- and long-term suggestions to goals in the Comprehensive Plan and Imagine Roseville 2025, since there were already a whole host of goals set out in those planning documents, with expressions of desired outcomes, with a need to develop a plan to achieve those outcomes. Councilmember Johnson concurred with Mayor Roe's suggestions. Mayor Roe advised that, as individuals did their homework assignment prior to the strategic planning session, they review the current City Council work plan and how it relates to community goals, as well as continuing discussion on economic development issues, and any other things to add to that mix. Councilmember Willmus suggested that the same formula for short- and long- term goals be used as that done last year. Mayor Roe noted that the "musts" and "ought to's" could be done, but short- and long-term goals were needed on both and provided a big distinction as alluded to by Councilmembers Pust and McGehee also. Mayor Roe suggested that those things required administratively due to mandates didn't need to be included on the goals and didn't necessarily need to enter into the discussion, especially if no City Council direction is needed for staff. Councilmember Pust concurred, other than if resources or other changes were in- dicated. Mayor Roe concurred, but noted that if not on the list at least from staff's perspec- tive, it made the process more concise. Councilmember McGehee reminded staff of her request that staff budgetary needs be removed from the quarterly report in the next revision. Councilmember Pust volunteered to serve as facilitator at the strategic planning session, to which Mayor Roe concurred; and reiterated that the Cobalt presenta- tion not exceed fifteen minutes. Mayor Roe asked that homework assignments be provided to the City Manager as soon as possible to be included in the agenda packet allowing individual respons- es at the meeting.
