A planning meeting is important and necessary in every business, it is the time to discuss the most crucial information in the business, and that it should be taken seriously and without distractions. With the help of planning agenda for meetings, they can achieve those productive and effective meeting agenda.
The IFA will regularly update the list of utilities who have attended an IFA Regional Planning Meeting, and who therefore have fulfilled the March 1, 2021 reporting requirement.Click here to view the list.
When a meeting has a clear focus, it’s much easier to set concrete action steps and follow up. If you got to the end of the meeting without having actionable next steps, the meeting should be considered wasted time. Stop Multitasking. Multitasking is a testament to our modern, connected life. But it is taking its toll. Planning an event takes time, it takes patience, ideas, people, and above all, it takes meetings. While technological advancements and online tools like Slack have certainly made event planning easier, nothing is as effective for getting on the same page with your staff and volunteers as running a meeting. Unfortunately, meeting planning, group dynamics, and general facilitation skills are not typically included as part of the project manager training program. And whether you are a project manager or a project team member, you've probably already realized that a significant part of your project experience will revolve around meetings.

Background and Overview
In 2018, the State convened the Water Infrastructure Task Force (“Task Force”) to study drinking water and wastewater utility needs and best practices in Indiana. One recommendation of the Task Force was for the State to assist utilities with long term planning by establishing Water Infrastructure Study Areas for the purpose of studying supply and demand, drought preparedness, infrastructure needs, and opportunities for utility collaboration within a region.
As a result of these recommendations, the 2019 Indiana General Assembly enacted Senate Enrolled Act 4. (“SEA 4”) requiring the IFA to conduct regional meetings throughout the state to enable drinking water and wastewater utilities to work together to address long term needs. SEA 4 also requires drinking water and wastewater utilities to report their participation in the meetings to the IFA. The IFA would like be a resource to utilities in satisfying this new requirement.
Starting in 2020, the IFA will host annual, regional meetings throughout the state for the purpose of regional, long-term planning. During these meetings, drinking water and wastewater utilities and other interested parties can, for example, identify regional drinking water and wastewater priorities, discuss topics of regional interest, and investigate avenues of possible collaboration. For the purpose of these meetings, “regional, long-term planning” is defined as a group of localized utilities working together to describe and address future needs. The IFA’s goal in conducting these meetings is to help organize utility-led planning groups that focus on regional, long-term issues.
Many utilities are already participating in regional planning via formal or informal arrangements. If your utility already participates in a utility-led, regional planning group, please let us know. We do not want to “recreate the wheel”; rather we would like to partner with you and help bolster your efforts. Your utility can meet the SEA 4 requirement if the IFA participates in an existing utility-led regional planning meeting that your utility attends.
The legislation requires utilities to report on their participation in the IFA regional planning meetings by March 1, 2021, and every March 1 of each odd-numbered year after 2021. Utilities may participate in any IFA regional planning meeting held during 2020 to meet the 2021 reporting requirement. Every IFA regional planning meeting will include time for utilities to report on participation while at the meeting. Please note: participation in an IFA regional planning meeting is required in order to qualify for assistance from the State Revolving Fund (“SRF”) Loan Program.
