~~ "(.: ~ ~~~ ~~; 515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117-1600 (612) 484-2177 /FAX: (612) 484-4538 TO: Mayor Hanson & Members of the City Council FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator DATE: May 20, 1994 RE: Ramsey County Strategic Planning Process MAYOR Raymond G. Hanson COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Jim LaValle Steve Morelan Bob Pedersen ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson In further discussing the County's strategic planning program with members of their staff, I have learned the key components of the initial process as they relate to the City of Little Canada are as follows: * Their goal is to develop a plan to complete the strategic planning process by November, 1994 (a plan to plan). * It is their goal to have this strategic planning process completed by the summer of 1996. * They are seeking City input for membership on the various committees. (Fifteen in all. See listing of committees on attached pages.) They are not requesting or requiring someone from our community to serve on all of the committees. * People identified for committee membership by the City of Little Canada would include elected officials, Planning Commission representatives, Parks and Recreation Commission representatives, staff, and other citizens with expertise in any of the fifteen committee areas which we feel could be a benefit to the process. * The County would like to have committee membership addressed by the end of June. Therefore, we will need to identify people as soon as possible. Given the process outlined, it does not seem feasible that we can do a great deal of advertising for membership. Rather, we should consider people with known expertise who could be of value. We could then solicit their interest in serving on a committee and forward people answering in the affirmative to the County for further consideration. Page 14
