updated list be compiled by consolidating existing projects and
incorporating new projects that have been vetted by the committee. He
further suggested that the resulting projects be prioritized and grouped into
two or three “buckets” according to associated costs. Following that
process, he would like to see a marketing plan developed that would
include a vision statement, project description, impact statement, concept
plan with visuals, concept budget and fundraising strategy. An interesting
discussion followed centered around how to accomplish these tasks. Part
of the discussion included the fact that Naperville is no longer a growing
community so the stakeholders have changed; they are no longer
contractors and developers. The idea of identifying, seeking and engaging
different kinds of Naperville stakeholders was discussed.
Duncan stated that, in her opinion, the realtors in town find the Riverwalk a
big draw for prospective new residents and one of the reasons why
Naperville is voted one of the best communities in the country.
4. Moser Tower Assessment - Brian Dusak
Dusak reported that the crack mapping is complete. ERA is waiting for the
results of the structural modeling before incorporating that information into
their update. He hopes to have an updated report submitted in August or
September.
E. NEW BUSINESS:
No new business was discussed.
