Background and Analysis:
A primary responsibility of the PBIA Advisory Board is to form a recommended annual work plan with specific projects and budget. The City Council has a role to review and adopt the PBIA's annual work plan and budget. The PBIA board needs to complete its final recommendation for the 2018 budget at their November 9 meeting, in time to be folded into the larger City budget for 2018.
The recommended work plan is due in February. The work plan is broader in scope than the budget, also including board initiatives that do not involve PBIA funding (e.g., updating the PBIA bylaws or informational briefings from staff.) The work plan comprises how PBIA meeting time will be used, the role and commitment of PBIA board members, the deliverable, timing and budget implications. Having a work plan helps to ensure focus, transparency and proactive consideration of the needed resources to carry out each initiative.
The PBIA advisory board held a retreat on September 14, at which they developed a series of public value maps describing what PBIA does and why, and engaged in small group discussions about priority initiatives for 2018. Attachment 1 reflects notes from the group discussions with staff notes added in red. Attachment 2 is the updated public value maps.
An online member survey was open September 25-October 9. Results will be provided to the board at the meeting.
Attachment 3 describes what PBIA has spent money on in 2017.
Attachment 4 outlines a draft 2018 budget for discussion, which is based on priorities identified at the retreat.
