CC Regular Session 2. 3. <br />Meeting Date: 10/11/2016 <br />Information <br />Title: <br />Proclamation Declaring October as National Community Planning Month <br />Purpose/Background: <br />Each year, the American Planning Association hosts National Community Planning Month. Given the involvement <br />of a new Steering Committee for the Comprehensive Plan Update in conjunction with the Planning Commission, <br />now is a great time for the City to support this initiative. This year's theme is Civic Engagement. <br />Established in 2006, National Community Planning Month is celebrated each October as a way to highlight the role <br />of planners and the importance of good planning in our communities. Across the country, communities celebrate <br />planning through a variety of avenues including have a mayoral proclamation declaring October as community <br />planning month; planning department open houses; community tours; or photo contests. Planning is essential for <br />our communities to prosper and maintain balance and cohesiveness. <br />Each year, a theme is identified to help a community plan highlight an aspect or outcome of planning. The theme <br />can be used to organize events and activities within the community. This year, the theme is civic engagement. The <br />theme underscores the necessity of engaging the public, elected officials and key leaders in discussions that shape <br />the future of our cities. Thoughtful, local planning cannot happen without meaningful civic engagement. <br />The City recognizes the efforts of several Citizen Planners in our community: <br />Planning Commission <br />• Gary Levine, Chair <br />• Randy Bauer, Vice Chair <br />• Andrew Andrusko <br />• Ralph Brauer <br />• Cindy Nosan <br />• Gary VanScoy <br />Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee <br />• Bill Kingston <br />• Christopher Ouellette <br />• Dan Torgerson <br />• Dan Franzwa <br />• Erika Sitz <br />• Leslie Roering <br />• Micki Adams <br />• Scott Brueuer <br />• Shane Bennett <br />• Randy Bauer <br />• Wayne Skaff <br />• Michael Valentine <br />• Jane Covart <br />• Jim Bendsten <br />
