(Short term continued) <br /> Take Downtown Development To The Next Level—As you know the downtown <br /> area is already alive with activity as plans implemented by the city and private <br /> developers have created a significant foundation on which to build. <br /> Implementation: July 2006 <br /> Action Plan: <br /> ➢ In July staff will present the City Council with a Downtown Decatur Development <br /> Strategy aimed at outlining the development priorities for downtown.We have and <br /> continue to solicit input from local cornmunity groups,downtown merchants and <br /> others regarding the plan.Once the plan is presented the themes contained within it <br /> will serve as a guide for future development,with the terms of the plan guided by <br /> available resources and opporiunities. <br /> Develop Infrastructure Master Plans (sewer replacement program)—The City's <br /> engineering and infrastructure department currently updates its 5-year Capital <br /> Projects plan on an annual basis. The plan prioritizes street and sewer repairs and <br /> other infrastructure proj ects based on public and staff input and available financial <br /> resources. The department traditionally sends out forms to various community groups <br /> and departments requesting capital projects. The results are reviewed and prioritized <br /> based on available resources. In the past,however, the Decatur City Council has not <br /> been involved with this process. <br /> Implementation: October 2006 <br /> Action Plan: <br /> ➢ We will schedule a study session in October for council input prior to that <br /> process beginning this year in November. <br />
