My comments refer to Chp. 11, the Implementation section of the comprehensive plan.
The Implementation section, Chp. 11, pages 3-4, contains excellent goal statements.
I am making the following suggestions regarding the goals listed there.
Amend Goal 3 to read

Add the following two goals `. `-
Svc` a.s
23. Commitment to alternative energy sources:^solar, wind
24. Commitment to educating city government entities, staff and residents in
conservation design, best management practices, and pertinent technology
as growth pressures and density issues continue to confront the city
I am asking that these recommendations become part of the city's public record.
