Strategic Roadmap:

On December 17, 2019, staff presented a draft three-year Strategic Roadmap to the Council. The draft Roadmap incorporated feedback from two Council work sessions, as well as staff and community feedback gathered from May through December 2019. Staff returned to Council on January 14, 2020, to present an updated Roadmap responsive to and inclusive of Council’s feedback. Council adopted the original FY 2021-23 Strategic Roadmap on January 28, 2020.

On January 29, 2022, Council held a full day retreat to review the status of projects and provide feedback on recommended updates to the strategic priority titles, racial equity framework, and year three work plan. On April 26, 2022, Council adopted an updated version of the Strategic Roadmap, which is reflected in the summary here.

We have identified six (6) strategic priorities that are critical focus areas to achieve the vision.

These priorities are

  1. Enhance Community Safety & Quality of Life

  2. Preserve, Protect & Produce Housing for All

  3. Confront Climate Crisis & Champion Environmental Justice

  4. Invest in Infrastructure

  5. Grow the Economy

  6. Strengthen Organizational Health
