BACKGROUND:

interactive workshop called Navigating Your Competitive Future. The workshop is comprised of four
parts: an overview of national and state trends affecting cities, a review of community change data
particular to Lake Elmo, a panel discussion and interaction between the panel and workshop attendees.
Panelists are ULI MN real estate professionals composed of developers, public finance experts and
planners. These workshops have been held in over 70 Minnesota cities. Staff met with Gordon and the
panelists over the summer to provide some background on Lake Elmo.
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL:

a panel regarding development in Lake Elmo.

ADVISORY SERVICES: IT’S ABOUT TRUST
Trust is developed across public
and private sectors.
"The workshops are opportunities for City
officials to ask questions of real estate
professionals in an environment where neither
party has anything at risk. This is a new kind of
civic space. The developers are neither
seeking anything nor defending anything and
City officials are not under any pressure. It
allows for a spirit of inquiry and exploration
that is too often not possible when both parties
are advocating specific positions."
