Item 7: David reminds us that City council directed us to get community input on what we want the site to be.  David wants to know if we are on the TCC website or not.  He mentions that we should be on the TCC website.  David will volunteer to coordinate with Donovan on FrontPage.  Neill will set up, and Linda will assist.  David will remain as the "PR" guy.

 

Item 8:  Back to Tucker - Scott called Jennifer Courdeux, our new planner.  She will be bringing a map to show all unused land in TS.  Tim Taylor can provide ownership information for each parcel.

 

Item 9: Janet - Pushes for Community Center, to include a senior center.  Also need a community’s kitchen, or a small auditorium.  In the past the community had tried to get a senior center. 

 

Free-form brainstorming begins.

 

The question was asked if we have the demographics of the community.  It has been provided in the past, who has it?

We should have a plan for Jim Madaffer by 11 September on how we are moving forward.

 

Linda Juhasz mentioned the facilities plan has some of these things in there. 

 

David Oates mentioned Developed Park Land

 

*** Lee Campbell arrived ***

 

Scott would like a unanimous decision on our recommendations.  This will require compromise, but would ensure we are speaking with a unified voice.

 

David would like the committee to act as a filter to whittle the list down to possible uses.  By a 2/3 vote.

 

Lee suggests voting on the possible uses at the next meeting, in case someone thinks of something else.

 

The committee decided on several guiding criteria to help them vote on which items stay.

 

David Oates will be working on a PR plan, to be finished by the 28th.

 

Scott will call Terry at Glenborough who is the neighbor to the former tucker site. 

 

Item 10:  New Business - David Oates would like to finalize and vote on the criteria next week.

 

Thank you to Deanna Spehn for continued support in Tierra Times.
