Regular City Council Meeting AND Board of Adjustments and Appeals Monday,July 23,2012 Page 6 8. Consider Items Removed from Consent c. Receive Imagine Roseville 2025 Quarterly Update At the request of Mayor Roe, City Manager Malinen briefly reviewed the pur- pose of the Quarterly Update of Imagine Roseville 2025 Medium and Long- Term Goals. Councilmember McGehee, for the benefit of the public and City Council mem- bers, noted that this particular update (Attachment A), the HRA had incorpo- rated economic development as priority of their goals, moving it from being Housing Redevelopment Authority to an Economic Development Authority. Councilmember McGehee opined that, since this was being made very clear, and with this body having taxing authority and members appointed by the Mayor alone, to have them perform housing and economic development was a rather broad charge for them. Councilmember McGehee opined that, given the general way the HRA interacts with the City Council, as a citizen and Coun- cilmember, she questioned whether the City Council wished to give the HRA body that authority rather than it being retained by the City Council. While agreeing with the efforts outlined in the listed goals, Councilmember McGehee questioned if Roseville citizens would prefer to have more of these initiatives and efforts done by their elected officials on the City Council, rather than by an appointed body by one member of the City Council. Mayor Roe suggested that this topic may come up for discussion in the HRA's annual joint meeting with the City Council, and presentation of their draft stra- tegic plan for 2012—2016, later on tonight's agenda. McGehee moved, Willmus seconded, receipt of the quarterly update of the Im- agine Roseville 2025 Medium and Long-Term Goals a presented. Mayor Roe further suggested that the City Council should revisit this from their point of view for the City Council's strategic planning and other City Council documents, for medium and long-term goals, many of which had been on the table for a considerable amount of time. Mayor Roe noted that it made sense to fold the Imagine Roseville 2025 community visioning goals and strategies into the City Council's strategic planning, providing a more cohesive and continuous process to follow moving forward. Mayor Roe suggested that this be taken up for discussion by the City Council on a future agenda. Roll Call Ayes: McGehee; Pust; Johnson; Willmus; and Roe. Nays: None.
