City Planner Anderson agreed that the City could do a better job with education and believed that <br /> the knowledge of the Board could be a great component. <br /> Board Member Lewis stated that in his opinion the Board should develop a very specific focus <br /> before participating in some of the events mentioned, rather than simply providing general <br /> information. He commented that the Board would be more successful with focusing on one or <br /> two items very specific to Ramsey homeowners. <br /> City Planner Anderson agreed and explained that these are simply opportunities, should the <br /> Board develop those specific areas of focus. <br /> Board Member Bentz believed that surface water must also be mentioned through education <br /> because of how the Plan is composed. <br /> City Planner Anderson explained that the public education component of the Plan could be met <br /> through several avenues, such as newsletter articles or utility inserts. He agreed with Board <br /> Member Lewis that if the Board were to participate in these events there should be a specific <br /> focus. <br /> Board Member Valentine stated that spring is around the corner and if the Board wants to <br /> participate in some of these events the group needs to be able to plan in order to develop a <br /> relevant topic and was not sure of the best method to prepare. <br /> City Planner Anderson stated that this is not an item that requires action as these events occur on <br /> an annual basis and the Board can plan ahead for 2016. He stated that his recommendation <br /> would be if the Board were to have a topic of importance, they could participate in one of these <br /> events to spread that message. <br /> Board Member Valentine agreed but believed that the Board could do a better job to become <br /> organized for the future. <br /> City Planner Anderson stated that the Board could review the time of year for the events to <br /> determine which topics would fit well, and provided the example of Oak wilt during the spring. <br /> City Council Liaison LeTourneau noted that this list of events is just a list of opportunities where <br /> the Board could spread a message and the Board does not have to choose to participate in <br /> specific events. He agreed that the Board should focus on one educational element per year and <br /> spread that message. <br /> Chairperson Stodola agreed that the Board could develop seasonally pertinent issues that could <br /> be included in newsletters or broadcast on QCTV segments and believed that work had begun in <br /> the past. <br /> City Planner Anderson stated that the Board did intend to create some seasonal articles for <br /> newsletters and QCTV segments but explained that he was having trouble obtaining volunteers <br /> from the Board to write the newsletters or film a QCTV segment. <br /> Board Member Lewis stated that perhaps an item could be placed on the next agenda. <br /> Environmental Policy Board / March 2, 2015 <br /> Page 4 of 7 <br />
