Revitalization Commission Minutes August 23, 2023 Page 5 of 8 The EV Manager noted that Mig will also identify additional funding sources the City can tap into for assistance. Chair Adler noted that wayfinding is a big part of this visioning plan and asked how far along they will get on wayfinding. The Director of Community Development noted that Mig will have full designs as a result of this agreement. With signage, the design can be provided to any manufacturer to get bids. Mig is the company that did the previously designed signage for the city. Chair Adler asked what LRC's involvement will be on this project. It is anticipated that LRC will be a stakeholder group and will meet with Mig to provide input. Mig's engagement process is well thought out and there may be multiple opportunities for LRC involvement. The Director of Community Development encouraged LRC to provide input to staff for finalizing the engagement plan. MIG should meet with LRC early, check in as the plan is developed, and provide a final presentation. Commissioner Williams suggested DBA be invited to participate. Commissioner Harald clarified that the scope includes public infrastructure, not King Soopers private property. He also asked if MIG has done similar work in Colorado. Recent projects were noted in the proposal. Councilmember Leh asked if public infrastructure by King Soopers includes sidewalks on both sides. There was a discussion about the public infrastructure along HWY 42. MIG's plan to engage stakeholders was discussed. Public Comment: Josh Cooperman commented on the area near King Soopers, right in front of tire store there is no sidewalk that takes you into the shopping center and suggested it might be a good access point for pedestrians. Chair Adler made a motion to approve moving forward with the contract. Commissioner Williams seconded. Roll call vote: approved unanimously. 2023 Work Plan Recao and Status Uodate The EV Manager presented the commission with a 2023 Work Plan recap and status update to remind LRC of the current work plan, determine what can be completed in 2023, and discuss which priorities should move forward in 2024. She reminded the LRC that the Ice Rink has taken a lot of unanticipated time for Staff and LRC in 2023. Detailed updates were provided in the meeting packet. There was a discussion around Board and Commission support. It was suggested to move this program to 2024 given the current state of Council redefining Boards and Commissions. The EV Manager suggested that this may not need to be a formal program. Chair Adler suggested LRC should have an application process to help decide what to support. Agenda Packet P. 7
