(Jan. 5, 2017) With several committee members having put in multiple years of work, the Comprehensive Planning Committee is hoping to fulfill a New Year’s resolution to release a communitywide survey and to finish a new comprehensive plan.
Chairman Frank Daly and other members of the committee apparently added plenty of work over the holiday, following what was termed a “productive” meeting with committee liaison – and board vice president – Dave Stevens in mid-December.
Following that, the survey was recast as a “strategic plan outline” and presented as a six-page, 24-question document. Daly emailed the committee members copies of that and a four-page comprehensive plan outline on Dec. 21, and notes were exchanged.
Although Stevens had said last month that a prospective survey of several dozen questions had been narrowed to just 10, Daly said several questions were back on the table after the most-recent meeting.
“When everything is said and done, right now the survey will consist of 24 questions,” Daly said. “This new strategic plan outline and the response to the board will be the main topics of our next meeting, [targeted] for Jan. 3.”
That meeting was held after press time.
Previous survey sections on “goals and objectives” and other material were eliminated in what was once a much larger, 38-question survey, Daly said.
Ideally, the committee could further streamline the document and seek final board approval to release the survey along with assessment collection mailings in March.
