Browsing around the CS website and their plans for citizens of CS and the disenfranchised ETJers, I found their Organizational Values in the 2009-14 Strategic Plan:
City of College Station : Strategic Plan '09 - '14: "ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES
Respect everyone
Deliver excellent service
Risk, Create, Innovate
Be one city, one team
Be personally responsible
Do the right thing - act with integrity and honesty
Have fun"
I like these! I think that most Wellborigines would too!
I hope that the city council members will look at these and decide if they can believce in these, too, or if they just want to give some lip service (or lip) to them.
Nonetheless, I have colored another map with my crayons to show how Wellborn's incorporation WILL NOT impede the growth of College Station. The yellow-ish stuff down highway 6, south of Wellborn, north of Wellborn is all available to CS. Heck, they can spread on out in Grimes and Washington Counties if they wanna and I didn't really color those!
They worry about the comprehensive plan, but, hey!, risk, create, innovate! You have a good set of values-- just follow them!
I truly believe that the incorporation of Wellborn might just be what is needed to shake out the citizens of CS from their sleepy hollow...
Finally, I got my invite from the Citizens for Wellborn to the members-only meeting on Saturday, 7 p.m., in the Wellborn Community Center. I know a lot of folks have been involved with helping raise money and raise awareness, but you haven't filled out your membership form yet! They are available online and they will have some at the door on Saturday.
Who cares about the US Census?
Get counted in Wellborn!
What do we need to bring to the meeting? Love your maps!
ReplyDeleteBring a nice smile, an open mind, and lots of creative ideas. It's our town, let's make it the best!
ReplyDeleteI'd say a lot of those values were lacking from how it sounded like the City Council meeting went. Are those values supposed to apply to all the city council members or to just the regular City of College Station staff? What about the city planner's office? (wondering where "do the right thing" and "respect everyone" plays into how they've been acting towards Wellborn and apparently towards each other at City Council)
