Vision Realization Committee

COMMITTEE IS NO LONGER ACTIVE

Committee Chair:  Timothy Moore (email)

Final Principles:  here (Oct. 11, 2013)

DRAFT District Goals/Policy/Action:  here (Feb. 14, 2014)

Committee Meetings:  The VRC committee has been folded back into the Planning Committee, with meetings scheduled 7:00pm every 1st Thursday of the month in room 210 of the First United Methodist Church at SW 18th and Jefferson.

Mission Statement:  The primary goal of the VRC is to help drive our neighborhood's Vision Statement, developed by the GHFL, by holding discussions on issues that will affect the upcoming CC2035 plan and specifically the SW Quadrant Plan. Although the Quadrant planning phase of the CC2035 will enable public participation, this process is intended to jump start the discussion and frame it in a context important to the neighborhood. Each meeting will be held for one-hour, at a regularly scheduled time, once a month. The discussion will be moderated to stay on topic and focused. If a particular topic appears to need additional discussion time, it will be picked up at the following meeting. If the agenda appears to continually be pushed out, the committee may be asked to meet twice monthly or weekly as agreed upon by the committee members. A draft agenda outline can be found here.
