NAIAP Review- <br /> . Staff has met with all of the active Neighborhood Boards and has recorded the <br /> feedback the groups provided. Staff is seeking to gain input from the two inactive <br /> groups. The aim is to gather feedback as to whether the action plan is clear and <br /> complete. Staff is currently compiling the feedback from the review process. <br /> Staff will seek input from the NLC about the next steps in the analysis process to <br /> ensure that the analysis meets NLC needs for transparency. <br /> • To encourage participation by those unable to attend their Board meeting, the <br /> action plan and an a-mail link was posted on the main web page for the <br /> Neighborhood Services program. See text at the end of this document. <br /> <br /> . Neighborhood Summit- <br /> Staff is partnering with a subgroup of the NLC to plan the Neighborhood Summit, <br /> which is tentatively scheduled for early February.. The collaborative planning <br /> process is working well. The team is developing a participative process that will <br /> facilitate open dialogue to work towards gaining agreement on the top action <br /> items in the NIAP. The goals of the Summit are listed below. <br /> Goals of the Summit- <br /> • Per the July NLC motion on the Neighborhood Association Initiative Update, the <br /> purpose of the Summit was to: <br /> • Get agreement on priorities among the 20+ items. <br /> • Gather ideas for next steps. This was later amended to be: Gather ideas for <br /> next steps for the top priority items. <br /> And added: <br /> • Give participants a change to review all of the feedback related to the draft <br /> action plan from the associations' Board and/or General meetings. <br /> • Provide the opportunity for Neighborhood Leaders and association members <br /> to work collaboratively with decision makers (i.e., Mayor, City Councilors, <br /> Executive Managers) in such a way that develops credibility for the role and <br /> contribution of neighborhood associations. <br /> • When the Summit is over, the majority-of people will feel that the Summit was <br /> worth their time and look forward to the next Summit. <br /> Process Characteristics: <br /> • The process should recognize differenf learning styles and provide <br /> information in a variety of formats. <br /> • The process should be one in which participants actively engage, physically <br /> move around. <br /> • The process should encourage participants to share ideas, listen, and <br /> network. <br /> ~ _ ~ ..:..:::,.::.:t.:..::..:..::.::.:.:.::....:..:::..................... <br /> n::; h....... ..................:HryFievev:4:v;•i!v!•il.... : ..t t.::1:9•.:.....1...::_::v:... x~~:: v~: ~::::::v:.. <br /> ....:.._....::::•..::v.:.............:. <br /> :....r <br /> :e::.. ..:.:...:.1:.1{vi:iiFi:iF'i:iF_iF$iii:-;S::i::F::i::J::i::J]i}1::•:::::i:::::•::::•i:!!::v':: _ _ <br /> :::v .....................:.........:::.J::x4!::::: :.I.:.. i. i.l.: :.I...: <br /> }i:ii4F:!vl..
