Department Approval <br />Item Description <br />BACKGROUND <br />l�'�, <br />Jy <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Date: 2/09/09 <br />Item: 13.c <br />Neighborhood <br />Diversity Commission <br />Date: January 26, 2009 <br />Item No.: 13.c <br />City Manager Approval <br />Discuss a Neighborhood and Diversity Commission <br />The Imagine Roseville 2025 visioning process produced numerous goals and strategies for the <br />community, and there were also some common themes identified by the Steering Committee as <br />noted in their presentation of the Final Report to the City Council. Two of those themes were <br />Diversity (people, ideas, development, revenue) and Sense of Community (neighborhoods, <br />engagement opportunities, facilities and gathering places, open and responsive government). <br />Of the 15 goals that were adopted in the final report, the first five goals clearly identify with <br />enhancing neighborhoods and embracing our community's diversity. These goals include: <br />• Roseville is a welcoming community that appreciates differences and fosters diversity <br />• Roseville is a desirable place to live, work and play <br />• Roseville has a strong and inclusive sense of community <br />• Roseville residents are invested in their community <br />• Roseville is a safe community <br />Some of the Imagine Roseville 2025 goals and strategies statements that relate even more <br />specifically to the themes of diversity and community are: <br />• Educate community members on diversity issues and provide means to repair damage <br />caused by prejudice; convey a clear message that intolerance is not welcome in our <br />community. <br />• Promote ethnic celebrations and festivals <br />• Foster collaboration between city and community-based organizations, groups, and <br />nonprofits <br />• Encourage development of neighborhood groups, organizations, and forums in order to <br />provide residents with a sense of belonging. <br />One of the challenges the community faces is the implementation of the Imagine Roseville 2025 <br />strategies. To that end, staff has developed a concept that we believe will help further the <br />Imagine Roseville 2025 goals related to Diversity and Sense of Community. <br />Page 1 of 3 <br />
