<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />she cannot do anything, because the staff is in charge. Rutan explained his <br />view of how the Council, manager and staff all work together, and used the <br />analogy of a corporate board of directors. It was decided that a process <br />session would be the best place for a future discussion of this item. <br /> <br />Boles requested that transportation be added to the list. The other members of <br />the group agreed to do so. <br /> <br />Miller announced that the members of the Council would take a short break in <br />the morning to attend the kickoff for the library campaign. <br /> <br />Ehrman wondered if the Council needed to discuss the social goal of housing <br />again. Boles said that the social goal needs to look beyond just the housing <br />issue. It was decided that it needed to stay on the goals list, but that it <br />did not need to be discussed within the Goals Session. <br /> <br />Rutan stated that economic development doesn't need to be on the list because <br />CCED has a set of well defined goals around this issue. Ehrman felt that the <br />item needed to be discussed to help inform the new members of the Council about <br />the issue. Miller wanted to keep it on the discussion list and indicated that <br />it would be related to the Metro Partnership item. He also indicated that he <br />had a brief report on the Metro Partnership which would help in the review of <br />the issue. <br /> <br />Financial stability was discussed and it was decided that it would be on the <br />list, but that it would not be discussed within the Goal Session. It was also <br />decided that there would be no new balloting on the financial stability items. <br /> <br />Miller questioned the other group members about priorities of goals, and if <br />some items should be dropped from discussion due to time limits. Bennett said <br />that he wanted to discuss each item and that the group could use a time to <br />monitor discussion to allow time for each item. Boles said that he does not <br />feel compelled to discuss all the items on the list, and that if certain issues <br />go beyond the time limit, then the group should plan to meet again. The group <br />generally agreed that time would be divided equally among all topics so that <br />each could be discussed. <br /> <br />The group then listed items under each goal. Under economic development these <br />items were listed: <br />report from CCED <br />review of Metro Partnership <br /> <br />Ehrman mentioned that Miller has been attending the Metro Partnership meetings <br />and wanted to know the status of the Partnership. Holmer wanted to know about <br />the components and cost of the Partnership. <br /> <br />Under the public safety item the group listed: <br />fire deployment <br />crime <br />drugs <br />community policing <br />focus patrols <br /> <br />DRAFT COUNCIL GOAL SESSION <br /> <br />PAGE 8 <br />
