Moller, Director of Economic Development & Business Services SUBJECT: Center City Project Management Team PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to revise the structure of Center City Project Management Team and to appoint individuals to serve on the revised advisory group. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council revise the Project Management Team to include the following membership and to identify individuals to serve as members of the advisory group. BACKGROUND On September 13, 2000 the Elgin City Council approved the creation of a Project Management Team (PMT). The purpose of the PMT was to serve as an advisory committee to manage the details of riverfront project implementation as well as advice and recommend to the City Council specific implementation actions for the riverfront and center city areas. On September 17, 2000 the City Council appointed persons to fill the 16 positions on the committee. On February 14, 2001 the position (architect) was added to the PMT. The committee last met in February of 2003. Despite certain short-comings that had been associated with the PMT concept, it did serve as an excellent resource for having wide range of Center City constituents and other key government and elected officials available to review and provide input on downtown projects. A restructured PMT could consist of the following membership: 1. Mayor 2. City Council Member 3. City Manager 4. Kane County Forest Preserve 5. Chamber of Commerce elk Center City Project Management Team August 5, 2005 Page 2 6. Metra 7. Grand Victoria Casino 8. Downtown Neighborhood Association 9. Downtown Developer(2) 10. Legislative Interests (3) 11. Planning Commission Member The current authorized structure of the PMT is as follows: 1. Mayor—Chair 2. City Council Member 3. City Manager 4. Kane County Board 5. Kane County Forest Preserve 6. Chamber of Commerce 7. METRA 8. Architect 9. Downtown Neighborhood Association (2) 10. Downtown Business Representation (2) e,., 11. Legislative Representatives (4) The proposed change in the makeup of the group is the result of the experience of meeting attendance and an attempt to balance representation by various groups. Phase II of Festival Park is currently moving through the design process. It would be helpful to review this project as well as others with the member of the PMT.
