LAKEVILLE AREA ARTS CENTER STRATEGIC PLAN
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to adopt the Lakeville Area Arts
Center Strategic Plan.
Overview
In the spring of 2019, City staff, advisory board, and friends board gathered for three strategic
planning workshops. The workshops were facilitated by Aurora Consulting which was paid for
jointly through an Operating Support Grant through the State Arts Board and the Friends of
LAAC.
In preparation for the workshops, the boards reviewed the latest Downtown Development
Guide, discussed the current reality of LAAC and developed a practical vision of the next five
years. Attached you will find the Strategic Planning Transcript from the first workshop. The
group then identified barriers, strategic directions and individual implementation plans for staff,
and both boards. As a result of their work, three strategic directives were identified, along with
corresponding initiatives.
Staff and the boards then worked to create sub-committees based on the implementation
plans, with cross-representation between boards to help with coordination. The official
strategic plan is a working document that continues to evolve as guided by the directives
outlined above. We have now completed the first year of the implementation plan and have
made significant progress coordinating efforts.
