APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br /> <br />Mr. Vojtech made a MOTION to approve the October 7, 2021 Meeting Minutes. Motion <br />was supported by Mr. Kohler, passing unanimously. <br /> <br />III. DISCUSSION ITEMS <br />A. Draft 5-Year Strategic Plan <br /> <br />Mr. Grochala, Community Development Director, presented the staff report. From past <br />discussions and review of the 2014 Strategic Plan, staff has assembled a draft 2021 – <br />2025 5-year plan for EDAC’s review and consideration. <br />Mr. Vojtech asked how often the City is acquiring properties for potential <br />redevelopment. <br />Mr. Grochala stated it is dependent on when properties become available. He <br />recommended identifying high-priority properties so the City is ready to take action <br />when available properties meet long-term development and infrastructure needs. <br />Mr. Colgan commented that provided the City does not take any undue environmental <br />risks on any of these acquisitions, it is a great idea. <br /> <br /> DATE : November 4, 2021 <br /> TIME STARTED : 8:00 A.M. <br /> TIME ENDED : 9:10 A.M. <br /> MEMBERS PRESENT : Jim Schueller, Nathan Vojtech, Patrick Kohler, <br />Thomas Colgan, Chad Wagner <br /> MEMBERS ABSENT : Andrew Cravero, Don Johnson, Julie Jeffrey- <br />Schwartz <br /> STAFF PRESENT : Michael Grochala, Katie Larsen, Jessica Eller <br />
