HRA Meeting <br />Minutes – Tuesday, June 19, 2012 <br />Page 4 <br />1 <br />2 <br />Mr. Trudgeon reiterated that this was a working document providing more detail and advised <br />3 <br />that it was not staff’s intent to include this as part of the presentation to the City Council at the <br />4 <br />joint meeting at this time; and that only the DRAFT Strategic Plan would be used for <br />5 <br />discussion purposes. <br />6 <br />7 <br />Member Willmus spoke in support of the DRAFT Implementation Plan, and how concise it <br />8 <br />was. However, given a recent joint meeting with the Parks and Recreation Commission and <br />9 <br />the City Council, Member Willmus emphasized the need for the HRA to coordinate with them <br />10 <br />to coordinate the most effective use of City dollars, specifically with the Parks and Recreation <br />11 <br />Master Plan Implementation process. <br />12 <br />13 <br />Ms. Kelsey confirmed that staff would continue to do so. <br />14 <br />15 <br />Chair Maschka opined that the DRAFT Implementation Plan was a great document, and <br />16 <br />suggested that it be immediately shared at the joint meeting with the City Council for their <br />17 <br />edification as well as for the public, to receive their feedback. Chair Maschka spoke in support <br />18 <br />of the thoughtful and realistic details presented for each goal. <br />19 <br />20 <br />Ms. Kelsey questioned, while identifying budget implications for 2013 currently in process at <br />21 <br />the staff level for presentation to the City Council, if the DRAFT Implementation Plan <br />22 <br />provided more detailed information than needed to facilitate discussions, rather than the HRA <br />23 <br />using it as a working document. <br />24 <br />25 <br />Member Majerus concurred with Chair Maschka, that it was a great document and provided a <br />26 <br />worksheet to immediately introduce to the City Council the HRA’s suggested intent moving <br />27 <br />forward; allowing for their immediate feedback. <br />28 <br />29 <br />Chair Maschka noted that the DRAFT Implementation Plan qualified the goals of the DRAFT <br />30 <br />Strategic Plan and made it more realistic, and would serve to lead discussions. <br />31 <br />32 <br />Member Masche concurred, opining that the document was very discussion-oriented, and <br />33 <br />concurred with Member Willmus’ observation that it provided great action strategies and <br />34 <br />would serve as a roadmap for something the community had been working toward for years. <br />35 <br />36 <br />Chair Maschka asked that staff schedule a meeting with him prior to the joint meeting to <br />37 <br />review discussion points. <br />38 <br />39 <br />Ms. Kelsey noted the need to remove the Moundsview School District Site from the DRAFT <br />40 <br />Implementation Plan (Action Item 2.d) <br />41 <br />42 <br />Motion: Member Willmus moved, seconded by Member Elkins to adopt the DRAFT <br />43 <br />Implementation Plan for the 2012-2016 Strategic Plan as presented; <br />amended to <br />44 <br />EXCLUDE Action Item 2.d, Moundsview School District Site. <br />45 <br />46 <br />Ayes: 5 <br />47 <br />Nays: 0 <br />48 <br />Motion carried. <br />49 <br />50 <br />c.2325 Dale Street/Dale Fire Station <br />51 <br />Ms. Kelsey briefly reviewed the status of this project; advising that there had been some <br />52 <br />challenges in getting an accurate appraisal, mostly due to finding comparable sales for High <br />53 <br />Density Residential (HDR) properties. Ms. Kelsey advised that the appraisal was coming to <br />54 <br />conclusion, and should be available for the HRA’s review and consideration at its August <br /> <br />
