Environmental Policy Board (EPB) 5. 4. <br />Meeting Date: 08/17/2015 <br />By: Chris Anderson, Community <br />Development <br />Information <br />Title: <br />Discuss Desired Information for EPB Presence at Happy Days <br />Purpose/Background: <br />Happy Days is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 12. While there is no longer an Environmental Expo event as part of <br />Happy Days, the City's tent has been enlarged to accommodate any Boards/Commissions that may wish to have a <br />presence at the event. Per the direction of the EPB earlier this year, Staff has already informed the event coordinator <br />that the EPB would like to have a booth in the City tent. Booth size will be similar to what the Board has had in the <br />past at the Environmental Expo (table and two chairs provided). <br />The tent should be staffed throughout the timeframe of the business/craft expos, which run from 12:00 pm to 7:00 <br />pm. The Board should have at least one (1) member staffing its booth at all times. It is recommended that members <br />be prepared to discuss availability for staffing the EPB. As most of the Board probably recalls, the busiest times are <br />generally about an hour prior to the parade up to about 1-2 hours after the parade and the parade runs from 3:00 pm <br />to 4:30 pm. If the Board prefers, Staff can circulate a sign up sheet to the group after the meeting rather than taking <br />time this evening to finalize staffing slots. <br />Observations/Alternatives: <br />Regarding booth content, Staff would recommend having information available on both groundwater and water <br />conservation. Staff can prepare the three (3) panel display board that has been used in the past if desired by the <br />Board, or can gather up relevant information in the form of fact sheets and brochures. If the Board would prefer to <br />focus on another topic, or desires to have other information also present, please inform Staff so that the materials <br />can be gathered and/or prepared. This could also be an opportunity to solicit initial feedback from community <br />members on the Environmental Protection/Resource Management Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan. <br />Action: <br />Inform Staff of topic and desired information for the EPB's booth at Happy Days. <br />Attachments <br />No file(s) attached. <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Chris Anderson (Originator) Chris Anderson 08/14/2015 08:21 AM <br />Form Started By: Chris Anderson Started On: 07/09/2015 11:42 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 08/14/2015 <br />
