Appendix 2
Citizen's Tool Box
The Citizen's Tool Box consists of broad spectrum and/or specific recommendations that emerge from
resident interactions and requests, or other planning processes. These items can aid elected officials
and city staff in determining appropriate initiatives for city improvements. This list of ideas should not
be considered the City's 'to do list' and can contain elements that may or may not be legally,
financially, or physically probable. At high-level these ideas are researched and discussed and can be
prioritized as new initiatives. The term 'tool box' is appropriate because it provides a safe place to
store citizen's requests so they do not get lost or overlooked.
