the idea is to gives a vote of confidence to the <br />process to take a deeper look at it to see what <br />people feel about i.t and move from there." <br />Sackett stated that he came away from the meeting <br />feeling that there are stakeholders that care a <br />great deal about Louisville and could help in <br />planning Louisville, i.e., the school district and <br />Boulder County. Sackett agrees that there is <br />already a consensus and will continue to represent <br />his Ward and listen to them. The Forums won't be <br />a substitute for wYiat the Council does. Sackett <br />feel that it is a good idea to set up a forum <br />whereby other interested parties could work with <br />Council to plan Louisville and make recommenda- <br />tions and encourages participation. <br />Carlyle Rowland, President Chamber of Commerce, <br />supported the continuation of the Futures forums <br />stating that it is good to have differences on <br />which to build. <br />Mayor Fauson stated he was very supportive of the <br />concept, but has qualms about supporting the <br />forums monetarily. Although Louisville should be <br />included in raising any necessary funding needed <br />to continue with the forums, $3,000 is "a little <br />too much - nearly one-third of the amount <br />projected to continue with the program. I would <br />like to see this continue and go on to the next <br />phase, but I have ghat concern about the money." <br />Szymanski stated he would be more than willing to <br />spend the $3,000 if he felt positive results would <br />come from it. His concern is that we won't get <br />any further along than we are right now. <br />Expending this money won't extend the 80-90$ <br />consensus that is already established, Szymanski <br />stated. <br />Anderson stated that the Futures Forum served an <br />outstanding purpose but is concerned about the <br />aspect of the money as well. Even if it becomes a <br />discussion group of the people involved, it will <br />take us farther than we are now, Anderson stated. <br />Hundley stated that if at the next planning <br />meeting people do not want to proceed, then <br />obviously it doesn't make sense to do that. <br />Hundley needs to know what Council's feelings are <br />about the next phase and if a representation could <br />be made that the City would be willing to <br />contribute if other people are willing to <br />contribute even if the amount is not identified. <br />9 <br />
