12. GeorgeV: At last nights City Council meeting, the first ever Strategic
Plan was approved. The 2-5 year plan was developed over the past six
months. Input came from three components: 1. A citizen survey sent out to
all residential 97110 Post Office Boxes. 40% (296) were returned. 2.
Interviews of City employees (Department Heads). 3. Interviews of the 5
City Councilors. The survey was the National Citizen Survey by the National
Research Center Inc. The survey was adapted for Cannon Beach but still
allowed for nationwide comparison. Managing Results, a company out of
Crested Butte CO, was contracted to analyze the survey, do the interviews
and moderate the 2-day session with City Council, Department Heads and City
Attorney to create the final plan. The top five priorities are: Affordable
Housing, Emergency Management, Infrastructure, Relationship with Community,
Effective Government. Each priority has a list of measurable goals to
achieve by specified dates. This info will be posted to the city's website
soon - www.ci.cannon-beach.or.us. (Note: Reference to cleaning up the Short
Term Rental Regulations wording was moved from Affordable Housing to
Effective Government. "No new transient short term housing permits before
July 2017 " was removed)


13. As we enter the heart of peak season, it takes extra effort to continue
to give great customer service to each and every visitor who we encounter.
Think of it as an investment in your future and that of your business and
Cannon Beach.


14. Walk the Evacuation Routes - every 4th Monday at 12pm. Gather at City

5. LisaR: As Community Relations person at Avamere, Lisa has a fundraising
idea for Azlheimers - "Artists for Alzheimers". She says "Our Suzanne Elise
facility is a perfect venue. We can market and do all the leg work, but I
wanted some wonderful artists in the area to help me create an event which
will be valuable for artists, the community and the cause. I have visions
of grandeur about raising some significant funds for Alzheimer’s, but I
want to do it right. These are my thoughts so far: 1.       Juried Art Show
to ensure quality Art. 2. $25 entry fee (up to three pieces) for artists if
they would like to sell their art (plus some kind of commission for sold
work at the show). 3. Free entry fee for any artist who would like to
donate a piece for silent auction at the show. 4. Accept voluntary
donations, at the show, from the public. All entry fees and auction
commission would go to the National Alzheimer’s Association.  We would like
to serve wine and hors d’oeuvres, and make it a classy occasion. If you
have any suggestions, I would love your input!" lrobinson at avamere.com
