Tazewell County meeting approves assignments, plans outside-led strategic process beginning in January
Summary
Members approved routine assignments by voice vote and heard that an outside consultant will begin a 2-, 4- and 5-year strategic planning process in January; the board said it will not meet in December and scheduled group and individual headshots after the meeting.
Unidentified Speaker 1 asked for and received a motion to approve the meeting assignments; the motion was moved by "Nancy" and seconded by "Mr. Atkins," and the chair called for the ayes. A voice vote produced at least one "Aye," and no member voiced opposition, so the motion was approved by voice vote (vote counts not specified).
The same speaker announced that they and "mister Delery" have arranged for an outside firm to lead a strategic planning process. "They're gonna start in January by talking to board members and talking to elected officials about how we can make some of this progress and and put this together so we can all get behind it and move forward," the speaker said, noting the plan will produce a 2-, 4- and 5-year blueprint intended to preserve prior work and guide future actions.
Unidentified Speaker 1 emphasized the exercise is intended to coordinate, not to erase prior efforts: "so that things that were done by the previous board are not lost, missed, or ignored." The speaker asked for patience as they adapt to chairing the meeting.
The board announced there will be no regular meetings in December unless absolutely necessary. At the end of the session, Unidentified Speaker 2 described photography logistics: clearing two center rows for a group picture and arranging for Daryl to take individual headshots in the lobby for the website. Unidentified Speaker 1 reiterated the offer of new headshots.
