Futures Committee
The Futures Committee was formed to assist City Councilmembers in their decision making process. The goal is to position the City in the distant future (30 plus years) for achievable successes, integrating community desires with known fiscal, social and environmental data.
Council Futures Committee meets the second Monday of the month, 4-6 p.m., in the CIC Room in City Hall, 300 Laporte Ave. Cancellations are posted on the Community Calendar, in the Agenda section to the left, and in City Hall.
