Mayor Strommen noted that perhaps green should be used to identify items that are on track to meet the completion date. Councilmember LeTourneau stated that he likes the red, yellow and green indicators and suggested that the green is used on items that are a work in progress and are following the timeframe designed. He noted that the yellow could be used if there are indicators that the project may not follow the timeline designed. Mayor Strommen agreed, noting that the dates show that the item is in progress. City Administrator Ulrich confirmed that the green indicator would be used to mark items that are completed or on track, while the yellow would be used for items that may not be completed on time, and the red to identify items that will not be completed or have issues. Councilmember Shryock suggested placing a check mark next to items that have been completed as well. Mayor Strommen stated that the change in use of the indicators would provide the Council with a better opportunity to review items that are not on track or that have issues arising. City Administrator Ulrich noted that he would update the Plan using the indicators as suggested by the Council. Councilmember Riley used the example of the trails plan that has not yet begun but would still be on track and questioned if that would then be shown in green. Mayor Strommen stated that a decision would be made by staff and noted that if there is not progress on the item it could remain yellow. City Administrator Ulrich noted that he could also include a comments section to provide additional details on certain items. 3.
