Regular City Council Meeting Monday, March 26, 2018 Page 2 Mayor Roe noted it would be good to decide if there are other engagement efforts that could be combined at the Parry in the Park, such as signing up volunteers. He does not want to create a lot of work for the Commission either. Councilmember Laliberte stated another subcommittee is not needed; just build upon what was done last year and rely on staff for the "doing" part. She also recalled that in the past, there was an effort to engage other populations in such ways like engaging in a festival during the Parry in the Park week. Imagine Roseville Vice Chair Peterson asked about the HRIEC's involvement with Imagine Roseville. Councilmember Etten noted this was summarized at the February 2111 meeting when it was discussed the HRIEC should evaluate how the events have gone and what changes can be made in the future. He suggested the HRIEC look at what topics to cover, the makeup of the current committee, the level of engagement with different groups. Councilmember McGehee asked about the evolution of the Imagine Roseville Committee, and what the Council wants out of the conversations and process. Mayor Roe noted those are important questions. Councilmember Willmus stated this is a conversation the Council should have, specifically, what is the Council's role in the Imagine Roseville series. Councilmember McGehee stated there was not any Council discussion when Imagine Roseville started. She agreed that maybe it is time for the Council to discuss this before handing it off to the HRIEC. Councilmember Willmus stated it is worthwhile but the question is in what capacity. Councilmember Laliberte noted this group came up out of the community out of a desire to have a conversation. This did assist people in the City to think forward about various issues. She struggled that it never came to be an official entity, and it never was an initiative of the Council. It even got into the Comp Plan. She is struggling with the fuller scope of this, since the Council has its own advisory commissions that go through an appointment process. She suggested the Council have a discussion about it before the HRIEC works on it.
