REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Grant Yates, City Manager
DATE: April 24, 2015
SUBJECT: Discussion of Strategic Priorities & Key Initiatives
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council discuss its short- and long -term strategic priorities
in regards to each of the following seven key initiatives:
• Economic Development
• Transportation
• Recreation
• Service
• Education
• Image
• Public Safety
Discussion
A Strategic Visioning Session is an ideal opportunity for the City Council to spend some
time discussing openly what the strategic priorities should be to achieve the City's vision.
Two years ago the City Council conducted a similar workshop to determine its Vision
Statement, which is to become "the ultimate lake destination where all can live, work, and
play, build futures and fulfill dreams." At this time, the City Council also identified seven
key initiatives: public safety, recreation, transportation, economic development, image,
education, and service. These initiatives were chosen to ensure that staff's efforts and
programs are consistent with this vision.
During the session, the City Council will review key projects and steps that have been
completed in regards to these initiatives and explore long- and short -term strategic
priorities associated with each. Public comments will be allowed at the beginning and end
of the workshop and the community has been encouraged to join us to share their ideas.
