Committee of the whole reports early results of citywide survey; master plan options remain in committee
Summary
The Norwood committee of the whole reported nearly 700 community survey submissions and discussed using a consultant to prepare a city master plan based on survey results; all items remain in committee for further work.
Norwood’s committee of the whole reported early findings from a community survey and discussed next steps on the city’s master plan, but no final decisions were made.
Committee Chair Joseph Geer told council the early submission count was “just under 700” surveys, with not all submissions complete. The committee reviewed high-level distribution by ward and other demographic categories and reported that park signs with QR codes have collected responses; a new QR code will be distributed to local churches for outreach.
Discussion at the committee level included whether to hire a consultant or contractor to draft the master plan using survey results. No procurement or contract award was made at the June 3 meeting; the matter remains in committee for further development.
The committee’s written report—submitted by Chair Joseph Geer and committee members Missus Alexis Royce, Missus Emily Franzen, Missus Susan Hoover and Mister John Moore—was accepted by council on a unanimous vote.
