12/6/2006ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEEA motion was made by Clarke, seconded by Erlanger, to Return to Lead with the Recommendation for Approval to the BOARD OF ESTIMATES Mario Mendoza, Mayor's Business and Legislative Liaison and Janet Pirano, Mayor's Chief of Staff, spoke about the proposed changes to the DPD reflecting a focus on economic development. Janet Priano gave an overview of the changes based on Mayor Cieslewizc's PowerPoint presentation from the public hearing last week. She explained that the Common Council has already adopted the funding for the changes and now this reorganization resolution will complete the reorganization. Question: Did the Mayor consider splitting up the DPD? Answer: Yes, he did look at splitting it but felt it is more powerful as one department, planners and implementers need to be linked together: and 2 departments would add duplicative administrative costs. Question: What is being added dollar wise? Is this just beefing up neighborhood services? Answer: A new neighborhood planner is being added and Council has approved continued funding for an Economic Development Unit Director. Neighborhoods are for both residents and businesses. Question: There is concern about finding a new Economic Development Unit Director with the background to manage social services and economic development functions of the new Economic Development Unit. Answer: Janet is putting together a group to write the Economic Development Unit Director job description and mission for the unit. Mark Olinger, Director of DPD, noted that the 2007 DPD budget has a lot going on for economic development, such as funding the purchase of the Bio-Ag Gateway business park, marketing for TID # 24-Southeast Industrial Park, East Washington Ave BUILD (which has the potential for over 2,000,000 square feet of office space within one mile of the Capital Square), and US Hwy 51(Stoughton Road Corridor) as an employment center. The motion passed by acclamation.Pass
12/7/2006COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT COMMITTEERerefer to the COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT COMMITTEE Completed on 1/4/2007
Notes: Commission will take up this matter at their meeting on Jan. 4, 2007.
12/13/2006COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMITTEEMary Czynszak-Lyne indicated she attended the CDBG Commission meeting when this topic was on the agenda. She reported that there was little discussion and Ald. Bruer suggested CDBG Commissioners send any comments via email to Enis. It remains unclear their position or questions on the reorganization. Janet Pirano provided an overview of the Planning & Development reorganization. She indicated the Mayor asked her to look at the department with the questions of function, efficiencies and whether customers could receive better service. The Mayor had these goals; 1) protect the healthy economy; 2) protect neighborhoods; 3) better coordinate social services/human services/neighborhood services; 4) improve the redevelopment approval process; 5) improve communication. For each of the goals, internal staff teams were created to make recommendations to a steering committee. Regarding Economic Development - it can be pro-business and progressive, it doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. It should include business development, job creation, quality of life issues, workforce, housing and transportation. The Mayor wants all of these to be folded together thus he put Tax Incremental Financing Policy Ad Hoc Committee, Real Estate, Community Development Block Grant, Community Economic Development, Office of Community Services, Senior Center and Office of Business Resources together in one unit with one director. The result should be a better set of economic development tools. On the Office of Community Service side, there are four important recommendations: create a pilot project for 20 families for coordinated service between child care and housing assistance. They recognize that the City also needs to look at other partners such as Dane County Human Services, MMSD and United Way to fully provide wrap-around services. The plan is to take 2007 to build the project for implementation in 2008. The Mayor wants to improve the timeliness of loan processing through Community Development Block Grant and Community Economic Development. He also wants to study consolidation of commissions (Community Sevice Commission, Community Development Block Grant Commission, Early Child Care Education Board, Senior Citizen Advisory Committee) and would like that done early next year. The Mayor would also like to improve the delivery of services to neighborhoods. Ms. Pirano indicated that the staff team began mapping out the City services to neighborhoods but did not complete the project. Another recommendation was to synchronize the various grants the department provides to neighborhoods. The Mayor would also like the City to develop an early warning system to identify neighborhoods that are in trouble. There is an additional City Planner position in the 2007 budget to assist with this. Another team looked at the idea of a "one-stop-shop" for development proposals and the 2007 budget helps move this forward with an enterprise permitting software system. The Mayor looked at the question of keeping everything in one department or splitting it into two departments. He left it as one department for cost savings with supplies and administrative staffing. Ms. Pirano went on to discuss the next steps. 1. New positions and new funding are included in the 2007 budget. 2. Restructuring of the department is contingent upon Council having opportunity to review. 3. Have provided opportunity for Commission to have input. So far it's gone to CDBG and now, tonight, to OCS. 4. There was a public hearing in November for the community to have input. 5. Other committees, like the Plan Commission will be reviewing. 6. Mayor's office is in the process of developing the job description for the new director position and will likely have someone hired in May. Mary Czynszak-Lyne indicated that it appears the most concrete recommendations are with regard to the "one-stop-shop". She is concerned about the merger of the committees as it will be an overwhelming workload and it will lose the expertise that is currently on the committees because no one will have in depth knowledge about all the issues those committees cover. She also expressed concern that the OCS office and its work will be eroded. Ms. Pirano indicated that the workload and structure are up for a lot of discussion. It's not a forgone conclusion. Ald. Van Rooy indicated it would be difficult to find one group of people to deal with all the issues. No one group will have the interest or expertise. He believes merger of the committees is not a good idea. David Wandel indicated that the Community Services Commission wants to actively participate in the process to discuss the potential merger. He echoed the concerns expressed by Mary and Paul. Ms. Pirano indicated the goal is to figure out a way to work more closely with other Commissions. Joanne Brown indicated that she doesn't see a problem of overlap or lack of communication. She believes there is only one area of overlap with CDBG and there are other ways to deal with that issue in a less drastic way. She indicated that the perception that there is a great deal of overlap is incorrect. Ms. Pirano indicated that the Mayor doesn't necessarily see OCS and CDBG getting in each other's way. She discussed the example of the Department of Civil Rights and Affirmative Action where the two units were kept separate but cross-pollinated. Ald. Cnare indicated that much more study is needed and suggested a joint meeting of OCS and CDBG commissions in early 2007 to share each other's priorities. Enis Ragland clarified that the Mayor is referring to the offices not necessarily the Commissions. Ms. Pirano added that the Mayor doesn't necessarily see overlap as bad or "dirty word" and that it may be useful and necessary. Joanne indicated a concern about the new name of the unit as well. She believes the name defines the offices and is concerned about the term economic and not including community in the name. Richard Berling suggested that maybe we need a business representative on the CSC. Mr. Ragland poised the question of how the City, County and other partners are addressing the issue of poverty. Celia Jackson expressed that if institutions are going to have a conversation about an issue like poverty, it must include those people living in poverty and effected by the issue. Lina Trivedi wondered if members of the CSC have enough information to speak to specific issues. Ms. Pirano and Mr. Ragland thanked the CSC for the opportunity to present the issue to them and for their input. The Mayor hopes they will vote to move the reorganization forward. Mary Czynszak-Lyne asked staff if Planning Councils would stay in the Office of Community Services. Lorri Wendorf indicated that they are in the Office of Community Services in the 2007 budget. Joanne Brown indicated that the old language of Day Care Advisory Board was still being used and it should be Early Childhood Care and Education Board. Ms. Brown also asked what the impact of the reorganization would have on staffing. Ms. Pirano indicated that there are no lay-offs but in fact staff positions were added. Motion to approve the proposal to reorganize the Department of Planning & Development with the underlying concerns of the merger of the Committees and the name noted during the discussion. Motion passed unanimously.
12/18/2006PLAN COMMISSIONA motion was made by Konkel, seconded by Ohm, to Rerefer to the PLAN COMMISSION. The motion passed by acclamation.Pass
1/4/2007COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT COMMITTEEA motion was made by Silverman, seconded by Choudhury, to Return to Lead with the Following Recommendation(s) to the BOARD OF ESTIMATES Recommend approval of the basic features of the proposed reorganization, with these additional concerns and issues to be addressed during the discussion of further approvals of the reorganization plan: 1) NAME: The name of the Department and the "Economic Development" unit should be changed to reflect the broader mission of the department and the role of community-based efforts in building a healthy city and its neighborhoods. The missions to be developed for new "unit" and sub-agencies within the new "unit" should reflect the importance of community-based efforts, non-profits, and partnerships between private and public entities in the comprehensive development of the city. The organization of the new unit should also reflect a cohesive approach to community development, not a scattered one. 2) STAFF FIRST, THEN POLICY GROUPS: The burden and responsibility of shaping the department structure should be assigned to, and lead by, staff and the new department's management, and not placed on the various commissions within the department. Staff should be organized and integrated as a first phase, with relationships (merger, reporting, domain clarification) among commissions to follow. 3) RETAIN HUD GRANT MANAGEMENT AS ONE COHERENT FUNCTION: The CDBG Office has built a strong working relationship related to the management of HUD and other grants. This structure, function and relationship should not be fragmented. 4) MANAGEMENT REPORTING: The proposed reporting relationship among top managers and the Mayor appears to be a set-up for conflicts and should be corrected. There is no focused chain of command from the Mayor. The motion passed by the following vote:Pass
(6:0)
1/8/2007PLAN COMMISSIONA motion was made by Bowser, seconded by Boll, to Return to Lead with the Recommendation for Approval to the BOARD OF ESTIMATES. The motion passed by the following vote:Pass
(7:1)
Notes: The Plan Commission recommends approval with the following amendments to the ordinance: - That Section (4)(a) be revised to note that the Planning Unit also provides support to the Metropolitan Planning Organization and its successor agency, the Madison Area Transportation Planning Board. - That Section (5) be revised to read "...neighborhood planning and support," - That Section (6) be revised to call the unit the "Economic and Community Development Unit." - That Section (7) be revised to better reflect the current activities of the Inspection Unit, in particular the management and maintenance of city buildings. - That the name of the department remain "Department of Planning and Development" or that "planning" be retained in the name. - That the City Attorney's Office review the language in the ordinance to provide more consistency in the wording of unit functions as much as possible, or "parallel construction" in each section of ordinance language. The Plan Commission asked that the following additional comments of individual Commission members be reflected in the minutes so that they would be available for the Common Council and Board of Estimates during their deliberations: Ald. Golden: - Expressed concerns about the timing of the Plan Commission's involvement in the reorganization and whether the Board of Estimates is the appropriate body to be overseeing the reorganization, or whether the Common Council Organizational Committee would be a better body. - Does not believe that a "one-stop shop" approach will work for providing neighborhood services, since individual neighborhoods have different service needs. He feels that the district alderperson is the best point of contact for neighborhoods needing attention. - Is concerned about the loss of the word "planning" in the name of the department and that the name of the proposed Economic Development Unit fails to capture all of the objectives of the proposed unit by overselling the economic development portion and ignores things that have little to do with economic development, such as the Senior Center. He feels that the suggested connection between economic development and community services is not very strong. He suggested that the name of the department be the "Department of Economic and Community Planning" in addition to changing the name of the Economic Development Unit to the "Economic and Community Development Unit." - The ordinance should also include language stating that the Planning Unit also provides support to the Madison Area Transportation Planning Board. - Isn't certain of the development "one-stop shop" is the correct approach but feels that a designated contact person for developers would be a positive addition. Ald. Konkel: - Feels that the Community Development Block Grant Office and Office of Community Services could be in the Planning Unit in part because housing and neighborhood planning occur in the Planning Unit. She is concerned about future coordination of neighborhood services, the key areas of which she feels are being "lumped into" economic development. She wants serious consideration of the planning aspects of neighborhood service delivery. - Would prefer that the department name not change, or would recommend "Department of Planning and Economic and Community Development" if the name needed to change. - Suggested that the Plan Commission report its discussions to the Common Council with the intention that the Plan Commission would further deliberate the changes after reviewing the reorganization study. She generally did not feel that she was prepared to act on the matter tonight. Thompson-Frater: - Questioned whether the "one-stop shop" needed to be referenced in the proposed ordinance. - Indicated her preference for a "neighborhood assistance center" or neighborhood "one-stop shop" as part of the discussion on how the Department of Planning and Development should deliver services to neighborhoods. Ohm: - From the perspective of the UW Department of Urban and Regional Planning, is very concerned about the effect the removal of the term "planning" from the department name would have planning students ("would feel bad for our graduates...") and on the influence of the department. He would not recommend changing the current department name. Davis: - Would like the opportunity to comment on the reports generated by the Department of Planning and Development that preceded the previously approved budget items and proposed ordinance changes. - The process that staff and stakeholders went through to think creatively about what we need from City agencies and how they can work the best together, how we can increase communication and maximize meeting the needs of the community is exciting and should not be lost in the reorganization revision process. Ald. Cnare: - Encouraged the preservation of the current department name.

In Section (6)(d) add "through the Senior Center" to the end of the phrase. 10. In Section (6)(e) change the sentence to read "Planning, developing, implementing and evaluating Community Services and Human Services, including services purchased by the City from non-profit agencies through the Office of Community Services." 11. In Section (6)(f) change the sentence to read "promoting healthy neighborhoods and a viable urban community through support of effective community-oriented programs which provide affordable housing, expand economic opportunities, enhance suitable living environments, and support thriving neighborhoods, giving priority to persons of low and moderate income, through the Community Development Block Grant Office." 12. Move the last sentence to immediately follow the title of Section (6) and change the sentence to read "this unit includes Real Estate services, Community Development services, the Community Development Block Grant Office, the Senior Center, the Office of Community Services and the Office of Business Resources." 13. On a motion by Ald. Konkel, seconded by Ald. Golden, the Plan Commission amended the main motion to add the following phrase to Section (6)(f), "including services purchased by the City from private non-profit agencies for housing, business development, community gardens, neighborhood centers, housing services for people with special needs, linkages to resources and neighborhood revitalization." 14. In the same motion, the following phrase was added to Section (6)(e), "including services for child care, support to families, senior services, youth services, domestic violence and sexual assault services, services that provide community assistance and access and neighborhood organizing and capacity building." The Plan Commission also recommended as part of the main motion changing the name of all of the units within the Department to "Divisions" and also recommended that the name of the Inspection Unit be changed to "Neighborhood Preservation and Inspection." The Commission recommended that the acronym "MPO" be added after Transportation Planning in the organizational chart. The Commission requested the City Attorney to add language that identifies the divisions responsible for providing staff support for each board and commission. The main motion which had originally recommended that the name of the Department be changed to "Community Development and Planning" was amended on a motion by Bowser, with a second by James Boll to change the name of the Department to "The Department of Planning, Community and Economic Development." Ohm and Thompson-Frater voted against the motion. The Plan Commission indicated that the main motion did not include the Board of Estimates' recommendation to create a committee to explore the creation of an Office of Neighborhood Support. Commission members noted that this recommendation should come back to the Plan Commission, along with the Resolution ID 05574, which is being introduced on February 6, 2007 and which would accept the Department of Planning and Development reorganization report with its recommendations.
