Chapter 2 ADMINISTRATION*
Section 2-534 Responsibilities of city boards and commissions in relation to visioning.
(a) Efficient use of resources. One
goal of the visioning implementation process is to
promote the efficient utilization of resources, both monetary and nonmonetary, and both
governmental and nongovernmental, in accomplishing identified goals. Boards and commissions
who are assigned specific responsibilities in the visioning implementation report should, in
furtherance of this goal, collaborate with other boards and commissions and with
nongovernmental entities as needed to promote the efficient utilization of resources.
(b) Transparency and citizen involvement. The visioning process has been built on the
principles of inclusiveness, transparency and openness. Boards and commissions who are
assigned specific responsibilities in the visioning implementation report should, in furtherance of
these principles, seek to engage the public in their work in a manner consistent with the
guidelines for convening, management, and coordination of citizen groups that are included in
the implementation report approved by the city council, as such report may be amended from
time to time.
(c) Cooperation with Columbia Vision
Commission. Boards and commissions who are
assigned specific responsibilities in the visioning implementation report should, in furtherance of
those responsibilities, respond to requests for information that are made by the Columbia Vision
Commission, and participate as requested by that commission in preparing recommendations for
implementation tasks and in such public dialogues as may be convened relating to their
responsibilities.
