Imagine Roseville 2025 Final Report

Home

Cit_y Council/Public Updates: The Steering Committee and consultant provided the Council and public (via cable TV) with regular updates about the Imagine Roseville 2025 process, findings, activities, results, and recommendations. See all these in Appendix: Council-Public Updates. Open House: On December 7, 2006 the Steering Committee hosted a final Open House at City Hall for the public to review the final draft recommendations for goals, strategies, and vision, and to offer their final comments and edits. This was publicized widely and very well attended — and changes were made to the final recommendations as a result of their input. See Appendix: Draft Goals, Strategies, Tactics. Steering Committee Meetings: These were facilitated by the consultant and generally occurred every two weeks in order to actively guide the overall process, resolve issues and concerns, and take innovative approaches to engaging the public, reaching consensus, and moving forward toward strong and constructive recommendations. Agendas and notes were posted and visitors were frequently in attendance. Steering Committee members also attended numerous Subcommittee meetings and their Listening Sessions, and participated in several collaborative workshops. See Appendix: Steering Committee as well as separate documentation of all agendas and notes. Subcommittee Meetings: The six Subcommittees arranged and managed their own meetings, usually every two weeks, to work through all the issues offered by the public as well as background information. They frequently invited guests to speak at their meetings and each also hosted at least two Listening Sessions to gather additional insights from the public. They met mid-July through early November, and also participated in a number of training and other workshops. See Appendix: Subcommittees. Workshops: The consultant facilitated a number of workshops over the course of Imagine Roseville 2025 to provide participants with the structured time to pursue issues in sufficient depth. These included a kick-off workshop for Subcommittee members with the Steering Committee; a training workshop for Subcommittee co-chairs and the Steering Committee; two major goal and strategy workshops with Subcommittee members, staff, Council, and the Steering Committee; and a visioning workshop with the Steering Committee; a workshop with the Council and Steering Committee. These are documented in their relevant sections and Appendices. Imagine Roseville 2025 Final Report, January 2007 Page 2
