<br />May 15, 2006 - Regular Meeting <br /> <br />Page <br /> <br />610 <br /> <br />developing a strategic plan should be the Board's highest <br />priority. <br /> <br />Another high priority initiative for FY 2007 that began in FY <br />2006 is the revision of the Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance. <br />This essential element of a comprehensive growth management <br />strategy will also tie into the county's strategic plan. <br /> <br />Finally, I recommend that the Board approve the establishment of <br />the "recognized neighborhood" program proposed by the <br />Communications and Outreach division (formerly known as Public <br />Information) of my office (found on page G-IO). This program is <br />suggested in response to public desire for more frequent <br />interaction with county government and for more input on issues <br />facing the community. Similar programs in other jurisdictions <br />have been very successful. <br /> <br />In addition to the five-year financial and capital plans already <br />mentioned, a concise summary of expenditures and revenues for FY <br />2007 begins on page C-1, and thorough descriptions of county <br />programs, services and expenses can be found in the program <br />summaries, beginning on page G-1. The county staff and I look <br />forward to assisting you in reviewing this information. <br /> <br />I appreciate the <br />the preparation <br />gratitude.
