City Council Meeting Minutes November 20, 2018 participated in a mapping exercise to identify areas for further outreach and to create location and boundary criteria. Ms. Leonard explained residents or community groups such as neighborhood groups, stakeholders, and civic organizations are able to apply for a SAP. The process of the Small Area Plan would involve the following steps: organize, connect with City Staff, City would facilitate application meeting, application would be submitted, Council would review and select application and finally the plan would be created and implemented. Council inquired how the minimum of 20% of properties within the proposed boundary was determined has a requirement of who can apply for a SAP. Ms. Leonard said this number can certainly be adjusted, but felt that it was an aggresive number yet attainable. Mayor Pro Tem Prewitt suggested that Staff knock on every door and get their input on whether or not they are interested in having a SAP in their neighborhood. Since these areas are in such a small radius, this should be possible. Mayor Hughson recommends talking to the neighborhoods first and identify issues or concerns prior to the application of an SAP. Council Member Gonzales would like to see more outreach using the local churches as they are able to reach their congregations. Council Member Derrick would like to see more outreach to various organizations and stakeholders within the community before implementation. Mayor Hughson stated these are geographic in nature and we must get into the neighborhoods and get them together in order to get their input. Mayor Pro Tem Prewitt also stated that she would like Fire and Police be involved in the process for safety concerns within the neighborhoods. Staff will put together an outreach plan that includes the criteria for the application. Council would like to have an additional work session or a lunch and learn on this subject. Staff has created a Small Area Plan section on the message board. 2. Receive a presentation regarding the DRAFT On -Street Paid Parking Implementation Plan.
