Amend agenda: Claire was absent. Approved the minutes of 11/15/04 meeting. VLT discussion re: future oriented products. Gil Future behavior should be governed by what they learn from the Town of Benson Shift away from bilateral behavior - what areas need to be left for municipal growth? Questions for the community- What existing assets do they value? What assets do they wish they had? Are there any land based needs not currently provided by the community? Key question from Gil - Is the expression of the community values coming from a report of what we have heard or are we digesting the information, analyzing and editing? Identify which topics, issues and/or themes are important to the critical masses. *****Prepare conclusions NOT policies. Brian/Phil: What can they do for us as planners? They can design questionnaires and surveys. Committee will establish a timeline for the purpose of keeping momentum (and the prevention of dragging things along).
