It isn't up to the community to come up with solutions, the solutions exist. It isn't rocket science.
It is up to the community to say what they want SA to look like in 2020. For example: we think there are too many strays - the solution exists.... spay and neuter, pick up animals, fine irresponsible pet owners, etc. Now that the community identifies that they don't like this and would like clean streets and would like to be "no kill" by 2020, then the city (and others) make this a priority, seeing as how the community has identified this as something they would like addressed.
Not everything has to be a problem in order for us to put it on the "wish list."
Is lack of free public wireless internet a "problem?" Not really, but if that is what the community wants and if it was good for business, then the city would address that. Is the lack of an NFL team a problem? No, but if you would like one by 2020, then write it down and hope that a majority of other people that filled out questionaires put it down too.
