That would be good.

Everybody knows, the residents knows about it, and all the stakeholders, staff, everybody knows about it.

So fixing the time early in the year, that would be fine.

There's a lack of decision-making because staff has to decide.

We can come up with any priority depending upon what the feedback from the residences or whatever needs of the city down the line, but we have to be cognizant of what the budget and what the cost, like, is it feasible or not?

Basically study session for that.

So for that reason, having early session would be really helpful.

That way you can come up with a budget and if you need time to study a session, that would be good.

And for that matter, I would like that we should have a six monthly review so that staff can come back with suggestions.

Some of the things we were talking about in January are

not feasible because of ABC reasons.

Or some of the things we were talking in January are really doable and we already completed this thing and we want to complete next six months.

Six month review is a must.

It can be a shorter duration like half a day session or something like that, but that would be a good thing to do on that.

And next one is the communication with the residents.

I know you discussed about retreat versus council priority session.

So, irrespective of whether we go for retreat or whether we go for the council priority session, I would highly recommend that we set up some

good communication with the residents that hey, we will be holding this priority session and in the past, these were our priorities.

What are your thoughts of the past priorities as well as what are your thoughts on the future?

Because if we look at the actual participation during the process, it's very minimal.
