Regular City Council Meeting Monday, April 10, 2017 Page 23 Further discussion ensued regarding language for the inclusive priority, with wording suggestions about city policies and procedures of “review and consider” (Etten) and “review and update” (Roe). Councilmember Etten opined that the goal needed to be new items versus o nly re- viewing existing efforts. Specific to the inclusive priority, second bullet point “Continue Imagine Roseville Efforts,” Mayor Roe suggested additional language “…and follow-through on outcomes.” Mayor Roe opined that this would ensure that not just conversations continued, but that recommendations result in decision-points for the city re- sponse; and possibly even have a separate bullet point to ensure focus. The consensus was to leave the wordsmithing to City Manager Trudgeon based on tonight’s discussion. Councilmember Laliberte noted that School District No. 623 would be coming forward with a referendum in the near future for their member area communities. With the city having its own CIP to fund and sustain going forward, Cou n- cilmember Lalibert e stated her concern that the city take a business-as-usual look at operations as part of the upcoming budget process, whether throug h this PPP or the budget process itself. Mayor Roe opined that it would be part of the city’s ongoing budget process. Councilmember McGehee suggested adding some thought to the city partnering with the school district as they move their capital initiatives forward to take the opportunity to fill any voids in the city’s programming, and at the same time help the school district and community-at-large in achieving more amenities. While very interested in hearing from the school district, Councilmember Willmus clarified that the City of Roseville is only one of the many communities in School District No. 623. Therefore, Councilmember Willmus suggested ap- proaching the topic from that perspective with potential capital needs; noting they were not entirely on the shoulders of this community, but brought forth a broader question that needed time to work through. Since this PPP is specific to the city, Mayor Roe opined that until more conversa- tions come forward, he didn’t see any need to include the school district’s future planning in this document, especially until more was known. Mayor Roe stated that he was not personally comfo rtable that the city should cut back on its activi- ties or plan due to the school district’s planned referendum.
