(Director of Environmental Programs and Planning Richard Sinkoff)
Overview of the revised Table of Goals and Objectives and incorporation of June 1, 2010, Board input.
9:00 a.m.- REVIEW PORT WORKFORCE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES (Dr. Ajose)
Similar to the discussion format on June 1, 2010, we will explore the Goals and Objectives developed for the category Port Workforce and Operations. We will utilize the same questions developed for the June 1, 2010, workshop:
  • Do these goals and objectives seem to be the logical outcome of the overarching priorities?
  • Are there other goals and objectives for this category that make sense?
  • Are there any goals and objectives that should be removed or added?
  • Do these goals and objectives reflect the spirit of innovation tempered by fiscal discipline that we discussed on April 20, 2010?
10:30 a.m. PRIORITY-SETTING OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES (Sinkoff)
The Commissioners will identify the relative of importance of all Goals (A-L). After reviewing the prioritized goals, Commissioners will be invited to comment on their priority-setting.
11:00 a.m. “TABLE TOP” EXERCISE (Dr. Ajose)
BTW will facilitate a “table top” exercise where each roundtable is given a selected implementing action to discuss within the framework of the goals and objectives. The intent is an inquiry into implications of the policy framework as applied to selected implementing actions, which are the operational elements of the Strategic Plan.
12:00 p.m. OPEN FORUM
The Board will receive public comment on non-agenda items during this time. Please fill out a speaker card and present it to the Secretary of the Board prior to the Start of the Meeting.
