I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />REVIEW FACILITATOR-LED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN NEGOTIATIONS AND <br />CONSIDER CONTINUATION OF TALKS <br /> By: James E. Norman, City Administrator <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />The City contracted with a facilitator earlier this spring to assist the City with major issues such <br />as the Comprehensive Plan and Density Transition. Larry Bakken has been working with the <br />City Council, both individually and in Council work sessions to resolve a number of issues <br />surrounding the Comprehensive Plan and Density Transition. At the most recent work session, <br />held on August 16, 2001, the facilitator agreed to forward a progress report to the City Council <br />for formal consideration. A report by Mr. Bakken is being prepared and will be distributed to the <br />Council prior to the meeting. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />At the Council work session of August 16, 2001, there appeared to be a majority of <br />Councilmembers willing to continue the talks in order to achieve an eventual compromise on the <br />issues being discussed. The City Council may consider such issues as a time frame fi.om which <br />the discussion should take place, parameters of the issues being discussed, and the eventual <br /> <br />likelihood of a compromise on any or all of the issues. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Based upon discussion. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Administrator <br />Principal Planner <br /> <br />CC: 08/28/01 <br /> <br />-407- <br /> <br /> <br />
