MOTION CARRIED. <br /> General Business: Public Art presentation as part of the Parks, Recreation, and <br /> Trails Strategic Planning Process. <br /> Steve Rymer, Director of Parks and Recreation, reported to the commission that the City <br /> has initiated a Parks, Recreation, and Trails Strategic Planning Process that is being <br /> coordinated by Mr. Greg Ingraham, from Ingraham & Associates. The goal of the project <br /> is to create a 10 year strategy that is consistent with the City's vision, mission, and <br /> goals. Upon completion, the City will have a plan that establishes the foundation for <br /> recreation programs, trail and sidewalk development, and Brightwood Hills Golf Course <br /> operations. The planning process will also include the development of a comprehensive, <br /> community-wide youth services strategy and a public art strategy. The intent of the youth <br /> services strategy is to increase cooperation and reduce duplication of service delivery in <br /> an environment that fosters youth involvement and civic engagement. For public art, the <br /> goal is to create a framework for the inclusion of art and how it can be an integral part of <br /> a community. The Northwest Quadrant has been identified as the City's first opportunity <br /> to demonstrate the benefits of public art and how it can be integrated into parks, public <br /> space, and design. The project is divided into two phases. Phase one is to gather <br /> information, solicit community input, and analyze demographic and recreation trends. <br /> Phase two is the document creation period. It is the planning team's goal to have a draft <br /> document by January 2006, with the entire project completed by June. <br /> Greg Ingraham, from Ingraham and Associates, presented the Strategic Planning <br /> process and some of the results that they have received from Brig htwood Golf Course. <br /> Jack Becker, Forecast Public Artworks, gave the Commission an overview of public art <br /> in the surrounding areas. Ingraham and Becker answered questions from the <br /> Commissioners. Mary Burg stated that the Council is committed to include art in all up <br /> coming projects. <br /> Announcements and Updates: No announcements or updates. <br /> Adjournment <br /> ( <br /> , \ <br /> Patri.
