BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On May 17, 2017, the City Council adopted revised Priorities, Goals and Objectives for
Fiscal Years 2017/2018 and 2018/2019. The May 17, 2017 agenda report and a copy

On March 6, 2019, the City Council directed staff to schedule joint meetings with the

ITEM 9.D.
Consider Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and Objectives
for Fiscal Year 2017/2018 and Fiscal Year 2018/2019
BACKGROUND
The proposed FY 2017/2018 and FY 2018/2019 Mission Statement, Priorities,
Goals and Objectives are attached. The proposed changes from FY 2015/2016
and 2016/2017 a,re shown in legislative format. In May 2015 the City Council for
the first time adopt~d the Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and Objectives for
a period of two fiscal years, FY 2015/2016 and FY 2016/2017. No new goals
and objectives_ were to be added for two years. The status of objectives
continued to 'be reviewed by the Council each February and with the three
commissions and Library Board at joint meetings each spring and prior to budget
deliberations in May 2016. This review in May 2017 is the first formal review and
update of the objectives in the two year cycle. Staff believes this process has
saved staff time and the two year cycle should continue. Twenty-one objectives
were completed or partially completed during the previous two years as noted in
the attachment.
DISCUSSION
As in prior years, it is generally acknowledged that with current staff levels, there
are many more objectives listed than can be reasonably expected to be
accomplished in the two years. In fact, many of the objectives will take several
years to fully complete.
As previously reported there is a trend of declining development related revenues
that historically supported the planning, engineering, and building and safety

services, the need for increased General Fund support of those services as well
as Parks and LMDs, static General Fund revenue and TOA revenues that
support transit and street programs. Recently approved 881 will provide
additional revenue for street maintenance and improvements but included a
maintenance of effort requirement to insure the new funding is spent on
expanded projects and programs and doesn't supplant current funding. In
anticipation of this situation over the past several years, a number of staffing
changes were made resulting in nine fewer management positions from the
former Moorpark Redevelopment Agency (MRA), Parks and Recreation,
Community Development, Public Works, Finance, and a shared MRA/Finance
completive service position. This is about fourteen percent (14%) of the City's
full-time work force and twenty-eight percent (28%) of its management staff. This
impacts the ability to complete projects and accomplish objectives.
The City Council Quarterly Report provides a status on most of these items as
well as other staff work efforts. Staff will respond to specific Counc!I questions
when this matter is considered.
On February ·1, 2017, the City Council received a status report and discussed the
current goals and objectives. In addition, the objectives were discussed with the
Arts Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, Library Board, and
Planning Commission at joint meetings on March 29, 2017.
The objectives in support of the proposed five goals have been placed in one of
three categories based on the projected time needed to complete the objective,
as follows:
A. 0 to 2 years
B. 2 to 5 years
C. 5+ years
There are 118 proposed FY 201712018 and 2018/2019 objectives. There are 77
objeCtives in the 0 - 2 year category 28 in the 2 - 5 year category and 13 in the 5
+ years category. The City has a relatively high number of objectives it would
like to accomplish. As currently proposed there are 77 objectives expected to be
accomplished or achieve significant milestones by June 30, 2019.
Several years ago the City Council established the current format where the Top
Ten (10) Priorities along with the objectives that are in direct support of a Top
Ten Priority were identified. In May 2015 forty-two (42) objectives were listed in
support of the Top Ten ( 10) Priorities.
It is recommended that in-lieu of listing the Top Ten (10) Priorities the Council
identify a list of 10 -20 objectives it wants completed (or significant progress
