<br />City Council Regular Meeting - 01/30/06 <br />Minutes - Page 25 <br /> <br />he didn't anticipate any serious flaws in the ordinance as <br />proposed, and recognized that minor revisions may be necessary <br />during practical application; and further opined that this would <br />provide staff with another tool in addressing issues not currently <br />identified in existing code. <br /> <br />Councilmember Maschka spoke in support of the motion; <br />expressed hope that residents would be pleasantly surprised; and <br />opined that the code may not be perfect, but was more beneficial <br />than what was available to-date. <br /> <br />Roll Call <br />Ayes: Pust; Maschka and Klausing. <br />Nays: Ihlan. <br /> <br />11. <br /> <br />Consider Council Team-Building, Strategic Goal-Setting, <br />and Community Visioning <br />City Manager Beets reviewed previous Council discussion and <br />direction for staff to obtain more information about consultants <br />and/or facilitators that might help the City Council with work <br />style analyses, team building and strategic goal setting. Mr. <br />Beets had prepared a matrix of those 1 7 firms responding to the <br />City's initial request for proposals (RFP), with their proposed <br />scope and projected cost for professional services. A copy of <br />each proposal had also been provided to Councilmembers for <br />their personal review. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust thanked staff for their research and <br />preparation of the proposals; and opined her favorable <br />impression with those proposals presented. Councilmember <br />Pust, on a personal and related note, referred individual <br />Councilmembers specifically to an attachment included in Carl <br />Neu's proposal, identified as, "The Ten Habits of Highly <br />Effective Councils," and encouraged their reading of the <br />attachment as background for the proposed goal-setting. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust offered three proposals as her personal <br />preferences, and noted that the various cost differentials were <br />possibly due to the proposer's interpretation of the RFP's, <br />whether involving the entire community or just the City Council. <br />Councilmember Pust chose #2 (Brass Tacks) for their honesty <br /> <br />Council Team- <br />Building, Strategic <br />Goal-Setting, and <br />Community <br />Visioning <br />
