To the Orange Community:
The City of Orange is pleased to present the Fiscal Year 2025-2030 Citywide Strategic Plan (Plan). This Plan is the product of collaboration among the Orange City Council, City leadership, and our community. The Plan identifies six Citywide community goals and a series of strategic objectives detailed in the Goal Action Plan that will help our community achieve these goals over the next five years.
The Plan’s development began in late-2023 with the City Council participating in a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) exercise. As the elected representatives to our community, the SWOT produced key insights into priorities that will be focused on over the coming years. After holding two community meetings on March 11, 2024, and April 30, 2024, the following Citywide community goals were identified:
Maintain Strong Emergency and Safety Services.1.
Enhance Economic Development and Achieve Fiscal Sustainability.2.
Enhance Public Communication Strategy and Quality of Life.3.
Improve Employee Retention and Recruitment.4.
Improve Infrastructure, Mobility, and Technology.5.
Ensure the Historic Preservation of Resources.6.
The Plan is intended to be a “living document,” adaptable to a changing environment and community needs. To ensure the Plan remains germane and responsive, quarterly Strategic Plan updates will be provided to the City Council with an annual Strategic Planning Workshop set to occur in the future.
I would like to thank the Orange City Council, City of Orange staff, and our community for taking part in updating the Citywide Strategic Plan. Orange is a premier Orange County city, and this can only be attributed to our residents, businesses, and community leadership. As a long-time resident and former Chief of the Orange Police Department, I am proud to now serve as your City Manager and help craft the roadmap for the next five years.
Respectfully,
Thomas C. Kisela
City Manager
A Message from the City Manager
2 Strategic plans are often the culmination of different (and at times, competing) factors. On the one hand, effective strategic plans should identify clear goals and objectives that an agency intends to accomplish over a defined period.
On the other hand, strategic plans should be flexible, avoiding a sole focus on the City’s immediate needs. This suggests that effective strategic plans are holistically constructed, reflecting a considered understanding of short and long-term needs, as well as the changing conditions that often drive the City’s focus and circumstances. To assist the City with the strategic plan update process, on November 28, 2023, the Orange City Council approved an agreement with Kelly Associates Management Group LLC (KAMG) to assist the City with drafting its Fiscal Year 2025-2030 Citywide Strategic Plan. KAMG proposed clear milestones to complete the strategic plan update process that included:
City Council individually and independently complete a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats analysis (commonly referred to as a SWOT analysis).
1. KAMG meets with each Councilmember one-on-one to discuss their respective SWOT analyses to provide context and better understand individual viewpoints.
2. Hold two special City Council meetings to discuss the SWOT analysis, identify overarching community goals, and specific tasks/projects to achieve these goals.
3. At the conclusion of the special City Council meetings, staff drafts the new Strategic Plan document and Goal Action Plan for City Council adoption.
4. The Fiscal Year 2025-2030 Citywide Strategic Plan (Plan) represents the City’s Mission/Vision/Values. In its most basic form, the Plan identifies key projects that done overtime, help our City achieve its six overarching Community Goals and ultimately ensure the City is a leader committed to providing the highest level of service to our community.
Quarterly Strategic Plan updates will be provided to ensure transparency and accountability. Going forward, it is envisioned that as a living document, our City will incorporate annual Strategic Planning Sessions in January each year.

The Goal Action Plan (GAP) is intended to guide the City Council and staff so the City of Orange may achieve the six goals identified in the Fiscal Year 2025-2030 Citywide Strategic Plan. The GAP identifies objectives, implementation strategies, timeframes, and proposed funding sources to advance projects over the next five years. While not an exhaustive list, the GAP represents significant projects that will benefit the Orange community and help our City achieve its goals.
The objectives detailed in the GAP include the following information to ensure the City achieves each goal in an orderly fashion.
Table Definitions:
Goal Action Plan
1 Goals - Overarching priorities the City Council identified and were further developed during the Special City Council meetings.
Objective Number - Number to identify a particular objective with the first number aligning with the Goal number (e.g., Goal 2 would start with 2.1). Objective numbers with an asterisk* denote those objectives the department(s) have deemed as a “Need” vs. a “Want”.
2 Lead Departments - The primary department(s) responsible for completing the objective.3 Objective - Brief description of what the respective department(s) would like to achieve. 4 Completion Timeframe - Short-term (1 Year), Mid-Term (1-3 Years), Long-term (3-5 Years).5 Description and Status - Additional information on what the objective entails and what the respective department(s) has done, or proposes to do, to complete the objective. 6 Funding Source - Identify which funds or other financing strategies the respective department(s) propose to complete the objective. 7
