CHTC Retreat
Also happening this weekend: the Chapel Hill Town Council will be having their retreat. Here are the details as I received them:
The Chapel Hill Town Council will meet Jan. 31-Feb. 1, for its annual Town Planning Retreat to assess progress toward Council goals and discuss priorities for the future.
The primary purpose of the Town Planning Retreat is to establish the Council's goals for the future. These goals will be developed into a work plan and budget by Town Manager Roger L. Stancil and senior staff for subsequent Council consideration. Discussions take place from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Saturday at Extraordinary Ventures, 200 S. Elliot Road. The first part of the retreat is a working dinner on Friday at the Mediterranean Deli, 410 W. Franklin St.
The Retreat Planning Committee comprises Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt, Council members Donna Bell and George Cianciolo with support from Town Manager Stancil, Policy and Strategic Initiatives Director Mary Jane Nirdlinger, Communications and Public Affairs Director Sabrina Oliver, Business Management Services Director Ken Pennoyer and Assistant to the Manager Jason Damweber.
To facilitate the retreat, the Town has again engaged Vi Lyles, who is newly elected to the Charlotte City Council. She has applied her expertise in citizen engagement and facilitation in her role as community outreach director for the 2012 Democratic National Convention and as assistant city manager for the City of Charlotte.
A portion of the retreat will review the work projects underway in DESIGN Chapel Hill 2020, the title given to the implementation phase of the Chapel Hill 2020 comprehensive plan. The Council's adoption of the comprehensive plan in June 2012 was not an end point, but a beginning. To learn more about designing your community's future, see www.townofchapelhill.org/design
