What follows then is the major planning work program objectives, as presently de�terminable, fn the form of Planning Milestc�nes. As mentioned above, the canpletion of the first and second milestones will bring about a more comp2ete definitian of the work process of the planning year. Milestone_. No, 1 - Resident P�rticipation Resident organi.zation and participation are an integral part of the work prograr� for the planning period. At the suggestion of the interim citizans committee the first step in the Model City process for Saint Paul will be the election of citizen groups. The Model Neighborhood has been divided into six districts, Posters have been placecl throughout the community and information centers have been set up in existin� agencies in an attempt to prepare the community for the - 2 - , � elections. Five persons will be elected from each of the districts, four adults (from both an income and pverty classification) and one youth between the ages of 16 and 21. Procedures for b�coming a candidate have been deteronine d by the interim committee. The process for election has been drawn from the state guidelines for an election without preregistration. The City Election Bureau will be available to supervise the election, June 28, 1969. The elected citizen group of thirty residents will be guided by the resolution drafted by the interim coaunittee and passed, after amendment, by the CDA. The resolution provides for a representative structure assuring area residents a clar and direct access to the decision-making process. Citizens will have the opportunity to review the planning of the city agencies serving the Model Neigh- borhood and an effective veto on plans. They will have the responsibiliLy of selecting the CDA staff in cooperation with the Mayor and City Council. It is also their prerogative to hire or retain staff and planning personnel who could serve their best interests in achieving comprehensive and effective planning goal�. It is proposed that the elected citizen body be compensated for their time and work. It is also anticipated that Model Neighborhood resid�nts will be hired as part-time aides to more effectively organize a resident participation structure and to assist in the continuing resident p�rticipation activities during the planning period. The revised planning budget whir_h accompanies this work program also proposes that office space, supplies and services, and other expenses •�ill be provided for resident bodies; an� that technical assistazc e in a manner acceptable to residents will be made available to resident councils to assist them in making reconunendations and decisions. - 3 - i i � This milestone„enconpasses the whole of the planning period.
