AGENDA CAPTION:

Present and Discuss the Establishment of a Community Bond Advisory Committee for a Proposed November 2019 Bond Program Election.

BACKGROUND:

Preparations are underway for the development of a bond program for a potential election to be held in November 2019. Community input is critical in the formation of the program and in the success of any bond program. Therefore, staff recommends the establishment of a Citizens Bond Advisory Committee (BAC) that will provide public input into the bond project evaluation process. Staff recommends that the committee be made up of both residents and business representatives.

Staff will brief Council on the proposed bond process, the role of the committee, the proposed schedule for the committee meetings, as well as critical dates so that the bond election can be held in November 2019. The Council will be asked to begin thinking of residents and business members that might have an interest in serving on the BAC. Staff has created an application packet through Survey Monkey that can be used by interested residents or members of the business community, pending Council's direction. An action item will be scheduled on the December 11, 2018 Council to approve the appointments to the BAC.

RECOMMENDATION:

Information only, no action required.
