" In the fall of 1993 , a forum was held by the four governing bodies in Orange County called Shaping Orange County' s Future. Out of this discussion came a proposal to develop a countywide process for assuring quality growth and for building community. Each governing board adopted a resolution authorizing the Steering Committee to develop the idea. The Steering Committee has met regularly since November, 1993 to develop a proposed process . We now ask each governing body to review the report and to accept the proposed process outlined in the report . A resolution for your consideration accompanies the report . we also ask each governing body to consider financial support for the project . A potential budget for carrying out the process is included in the report materials, as well as information on potential methods of sharing the costs of the budget . We suggest that the Managers of the four governing bodies may wish to meet and discuss the budget, potential cost-sharing methods, and the allocation of staff time . The Steering Committee felt that it would be appropriate for the Managers to consider and make recommendations concerning this tentative budget proposal .
