DATE: January 2, 2019
CONSENT
AGENDA ITEM: 2019 Goal Setting Session
SUBMITTED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator
BACKGROUND:
In 2017 the city brought in a facilitator, Phil Kern, to help develop a two year work plan. Staff is proposing
Mr. Kern come back in 2019 to facilitate the development of the next two year plan.
Each year the Planning Commission and Parks and Recreation Commission also recommended annual work
plans to guide their commissions. In Nov/Dec of 2018 they worked on developing plans for 2019 which
will be brought to the Council to help inform the City’s work plan for 2019.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL:
Should the Council hold a goal setting session with Phil Kern?
PROPOSAL:
City staff reached out to Phil Kern to see if he was available/interested in helping develop the next two year
plan. He has provided a proposal for the work and a copy is included in your packet.
As mentioned at the last council meeting, after surveying council members staff is proposing to hold the
goal setting session on Tuesday, February 12th at 6:00pm (regular work session day but start time is half
hour earlier). The session is expected to last about 3 hours so that’s why the slightly earlier time was
suggested. We have inquired about holding the session at the Sally Manzara Nature Center and are awaiting
confirmation.
OPTIONS:
1) Approve the proposal from Phil Kern
2) Amend and then Approve the proposal from Phil Kern
3) Do not hold a goal setting session in 2019
RECOMMENDATION:
“Move to approve the facilitation services of Phil Kern.”
