Reffering to the above said the following topics would be proposed to be discussed at the meeting:

- community based, etc. alternatives of social services;

A city is as if a living organism which is constantly changing. Every point of the life arc contains its challenges and choices.How to react, which road to take with the purpose of sustainable and balanced development of the city? Wise choices help the city cope with changes and move on - to do right things in the right order at the right time.
