Many of the department heads will be taking time off during the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. All departments will be appropriately staffed and many of us will be a phone call away if something should happen that needs our attention. Again, thank you for the much appreciated light schedule! HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Samantha FOCUS 2000 The Focus 2000 Steering Committee is scheduled to meet Tuesday, December 20 at 6: 30 p.m. The agenda will be quite heavy as the Committee will be preparing recommendations to be submitted to the Council for consideration at the January 28, 1995 Council/Staff Strategic Planning Session. The recommendations will consist of a prioritization of Focus 2000 goals and action steps to be implemented in 1995 and identification of Focus 2000 budget priorities for 1996. Lastly, the Committee will develop a survey soliciting feedback on the Focus 2000 Implementation Plan. This survey is slated to be printed in the next City newsletter, Mounds View Matters, in late February, 1995. CUSTODIAN The City's custodian resigned last week due to personal time constraints. He also works full-time at the University of St. Thomas and was having trouble fitting his family into his schedule. An advertisement was placed in last Sundays paper (12/11) . To date we have received three applications. Tim C. D.W. Jones Property: • Paul and I met with a developer who is interested in building a Holiday Inn Express on Dale Jones Property located on Silver Lake Road and Highway 10. We gave them an overview of our policies regarding the use of Tax Increment Financing and suggested they discuss their preliminary plans with Rice Creek Watershed due to the wetland area located in the area. Meeting with EDC Chairman: • At the request of Delane Welsch, EDC chairman, I met with a women named Lietta who is on the TCAAP Reutilization Committee. She was interested to learn more about the demographics of Mounds View and our plans for redevelopment of Highway 10. I do not feel that I was able to give her much information since she started to ask what the city's priorities were for TCAAP. I suggested she talk to Diane Wuori regarding Mounds View's priorities.
