Ms. Pederson connected this from a public safety, <br />recreational, housing, and communication standpoint in the <br />global picture. Ms. Pederson advised that the Commission <br />attempted to have a minimum of two (2) commissioners at <br />each neighborhood event. <br />Councilmember Maschka noted that the nature of <br />business within the community was changing, and <br />former civic organizations that provided service- <br />oriented interests in the community would need replaced <br />or institutionalized, perhaps through the development of <br />the previously-discussed Volunteer Coordinator. <br />Mr. Mulder concurred, questioning how communities <br />needed to organize today, and if they needed to organize <br />around different issues, events, or facilities (i.e., specific <br />park areas); and how the City invested in them. <br />Further discussion included the Human Rights aspects of <br />where people live; how they identify their lifestyles; and <br />related logistics; <br />Mr. Brokke further highlighted that only 1/3 of the parks <br />had Master Plans completed to-date, and there were <br />changing trends and uses, and changing neighborhoods. <br />1. <br />2. <br />3. <br />Q <br />5. <br />6. <br />7. <br />Opportunity for re-evaluation of svstem <br />Increased sponsorships/donations, outside funding <br />sources <br />Community gathering place — build and capture � <br />community spirit/referendum gauge <br />Affiliated group/neighbor/volunteer involvement and � <br />outreach ! <br />Environmental complex WRC/N.S.
