Visioning Sessions 2005

Early in 2005, the Clearwater City Council and senior staff held a series of three workshops devoted to exploring and refining their vision for the future of the City. During these workshops, they modified the official city vision statement, and came up with a series of strategic initiatives, based on this statement and their internal discussions, that could be used to help achieve desired future conditions.

The leaders recognized that past initiatives had not fared well, in part because of the perceived disconnect between their goals and the goals of the community as a whole. In order to mitigate this issue, the Council authorized a series of community-wide workshops, modeled after the ones that they and the staff had completed. These workshops had several primary purposes: gather information from the community about concerns and directions; field test the Council’s ideas and proposed initiatives; help build consensus for which direction the City should move in the upcoming years.

This report summarizes the results of these community workshops. Eight weekly workshops were scheduled within the City and were held during the months of September and October. These workshops were held on weekday evenings, in locations spread throughout the community. Most workshops were very well attended, with the exception of workshop number five. In early November a ninth workshop was added in order to provide additional opportunities for business interests to attend and participate. City council members and senior staff attended every workshop, and most workshops included at least four Council members.
