Receive Presentation of City's Strategic Plan

Annually, the City Council and staff participate in a Strategic Planning activity at the beginning of the year.   This year the City hired facilitator Anita Duckor of Duckor & Associates to assist with this process to come up with a three to five year planning tool, along with vision and mission statements and a balanced scorecard for accountability.  City Council, all Boards and Commissions, and City staff participated in a survey to begin the process.  Several work sessions were held with City Council and management staff.  The outcome of all the sessions was presented to the City Council and the public on May 28, 2013.  The Council formally adopted the Strategic Plan at that meeting.  Since that time, Mayor Strommen and City Administrator Ulrich have attended Commission and Board meetings to present the City's Strategic Plan.  They will be at the meeting this evening to present the Plan to the Charter Commission.

There are several documents attached to this case for your information.  The first is a letter from Mayor Strommen which explains the Plan and the intent.  The second document is the Final Report from the May 28 meeting.  Lastly, the third document is a brief overview, done in powerpoint format, of the plan.  Staff will make paper copies to bring to the meeting for distribution as well.
