South Mountain Partnership 5-Year Plan Kick-Off
Kim Williams and Steering Committe
We have achieved many of our targeted "nexus" goals and will begin to develop a 5-Year Plan that will target some key issues such as:
- Refining an organizational structure
- Prioiritizing support and determinging key projects and actions in the next several years
- Refining what being a "partner means" We hope to have a spirited discussion what you think are the strenghts, weakness, and opportunities of the Partnership may be. Stay tuned for a pre-meeting survey that will help informat us on your thoughts.
