9:20 Overview of Plan Components
▪ Mission and Vision This will be an opportunity to review, refine and enhance the City’s existing mission and vision.
▪ Governance The City Council is the community’s legislative and policymaking body. Power is centralized in the elected council, which, for example, approves the budget and determines the tax rate. The council also focuses on the community’s goals, major projects and such long-term considerations as community growth, land use development, capital improvement and financing and strategic planning. The council hires a professional manager to implement the administrative responsibilities related to these goals and supervises the manager’s performance. The City Manager oversees the day-today operations of the City and all its departments.
▪ Goals are broad, long-term outcomes that are reasonable to achieve within a time frame and with available resources. Because goals are often very open-ended, they leave room for separate departments and teams to develop specific actions to help reach these outcomes. For purposes of this effort, a goal must be:
• Specific
• Measurable
• Attainable
• Relevant
• Timebound
▪ Strategies While describe desired outcomes, strategies should define the approach for attainment. A strategy is a specific plan you’ll use to meet your goals. They should be very specific, with details about how departments will achieve goals through actions.
Strategies are often solutions to specific problems, helping create to-do lists and action plans teams and departments can follow.
ATTACHMENT 1
▪ Tactics are the individual action items implemented by staff, essentially breaking down strategies into actionable tasks they can designate to specific people and assign due dates to, allowing them to create a more accurate timeline of project progress. 9:30 Opportunities and Challenges
