6. DISCUSSION OF THE LANDMARK PRESERVATION COMMISSION'S 2016 WORK PLAN
Each year the Landmark Preservation Commission (LPC) prepares for Council a Work Plan for the
coming year. For 2016, Council has asked that the Work Plans be more closely aligned with its
Strategic Plan and Outcome Areas. In addition to the LPC’s 2015 Work Plan, the 2015-2016 Strategic
Plan is attached, as is the recent LPC response prepared for Council’s Boards and Commission
Periodic Review. To create its 2016 Work Plan, Commission members should identify ongoing and
new goals and objectives that support those of Council.
Based upon the 2015 Work Plan, staff has entered preliminary information into the draft work plan,
using the Strategic Plan as the format. The areas of highest alignment were identified in the Periodic
Review as Community & Neighborhood Livability, and Economic Heath Outcome Areas. Additionally,
the LPC may find it has good alignment with Environmental Health.
