The Task Force <br /> Three project task force meetings will be held with interested and committed <br /> representatives of the citizens at large. The task force will be open for participation, but <br /> meetings will be designed to be focused on tasks and participation. <br /> The first task force meeting will focus on identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities <br /> and threats to the community. Analysis and summary of census/demographic data will <br /> also be presented at this time. The primary focus of this session will be revisiting the <br /> community's vision and to ensure this vision is being carried out in the update. <br /> The second task force meeting will involve articulating goals and objectives, considering <br /> basic development scenarios for Ramsey and the development of implementation <br /> strategies.
