34 should weigh heavily into the selected project proposer. 35 P OLICY O BJECTIVE 36 The city’s approved Strategic Racial Equity Action Plan (SREAP) as well as the city’s Racial Equity 37 Narrative detail the city’s commitment to providing an inclusive community. Part of that includes 38 improving engagement, and participation among community members, developing relationships and 39 increasing collaboration with community leaders and organizations, following through on lessons 40 learned through community members by committing to listen, learn and implement improved 41 methods and practices to better serve the needs of all in the community. The objective is to ensure 42 that the City’s strategic vision is directly informed by the Roseville community. 43 E QUITY I MPACT 44 The intended outcome of the visioning process is to identify and articulate Community Aspirations 45 and to develop and prioritize specific outcomes the community believes will demonstrate the City is 46 achieving Community Aspirations. This process will serve as the precursor to the development of a 47 community-informed Strategic Plan with specific goals to achieve the prioritized outcomes 48 identified during the community visioning process to the maximum extent possible. It is important 49 that the voices that are nothistorically engaged civically be represented and accounted for during 50 this process to ensure that the city is able to achieve aspirations that are important to all residents. 51 B UDGET I MPLICATIONS 52 The city has set aside $100,000 in funds in the 2022 budget to conduct a visioning process. As part 53 of the RFP, we intentionally did not provide a specific timeline nor a specific budget for this project. 54 The purpose behind that was to solicit proposals that met the scope of work associated with 55 Council’s desired outcomes, rather than based on an out-dated budget amount. The dollar amount 56 included in the 2022 budget was based on visioning projects conducted prior to COVID-19 57 pandemic, and many of them did not have a strong emphasis or focus on engaging hisotrically 58 underrepresented groups. Should the amount of the proposal exceed the $100,000 allocated amount, 59 additional funds could be included in the 2023 budget as the project is expected to be completed in 60 2023. Also, given this is a one-time expense, the Council could consider using reserve funds to 61 close funding gaps. 62 S TAFF R ECOMMENDATION 63 Receive presentations by consultant applicants and authorize the acceptance of a bid proposal for the 64 Community-Wide Visioning project. 65 R EQUESTED C OUNCIL A CTION 66 By motion, authorize the acceptance of a bid proposal for the Community-Wide Visioning project.
