KELSEYVILLE
Kelseyville Riviera Town Hall a success
The Town Hall meeting of the Kelseyville Riviera Community Association (KRCA) was buzzing with Members actively giving their input into the updated draft of the KRCA Strategic Plan. During the meeting on Thursday, January 25, the Strategic Planning Committee presented an updated draft of the Plan which includes the topics sections of Governance, Finance, Facilities, Outreach, and Safety. This Committee and the Town Hall was facilitated by members of the KRCA Community, Janine Citron, April Leiferman, and George Bloomfield and office manager, Tina Turner.
After a brief overview of the draft Plan, attendees were invited to participate in any two of the five interactive, topic-specific breakout sessions. Each group facilitator provided an in-depth review of the goals for that topic and recorded Member input. The interaction was lively and positive.
Following the breakouts, Member input for each topic was added to the presentation panels, before Members used adhesive dots to indicate their priorities.
The Association was pleased to welcome Supervisor Jessica Pyska and County Community Development Director Mireya Turner to join in the process. Community Members enjoyed a Question-and-Answer session where the County's Area and General Plans were discussed.
Pyska described the process by which roads are targeted for improvement. She also congratulated the Association for its progress on fire safety. Members expressed interest in the County's General and Area-specific Plan development process and funding options for a possible County Park in the community. Currently, the KRCA does not have a public park or lakefront access for members.
Results of the Community's Strategic Plan review and prioritization exercise showed that Members highly value obtaining a pool, a family-friendly park with picnic and play areas, a lakefront area with water access and marina, dog park(s), a larger clubhouse, waterpark, and security measures such as community patrol or surveillance cameras.
Interest in receiving the recently reinstated The Rivieran newsletter was also high. Members expressed support for the Association's assertive efforts to obtain and include Community input in the Plan's development.
Once finalized in the next few months, the new KRCA Strategic Plan will provide a roadmap for strong leadership development for the Association as well as stable succession planning.
The Strategic Planning Committee will incorporate the questions and results of a 2019 Community Survey, along with input from Friday's Town Hall, to develop and circulate an updated Community Survey to be sent to all Community Members.
Fresh data from this final Survey will allow the Committee to hone the Plan before presenting it to the KRCA Board with a recommendation to adopt. When adopted, the new Strategic Plan will provide a clear roadmap for achieving the goals of the Members and position the Association to bring new and improved assets to the Community, as well as to obtain grants and other financial backing for future Community enhancements.
The Kelseyville Riviera Community Association (KRCA) is one of the largest Community Associations in the State with over 2,800 properties including over 1,500 residences. To contribute to the strategic plan or to learn more about the Association, call 707.277.7281 or email manager@krca.biz.
