January 24, 2014 (CC Meeting of 02/05/14)
of ~-s~t3tJJ'f
SUBJECT: Consider Status Report on Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for Fiscal Year 2013/2014 and Direction fot Fiscal Year
2014/2015
Attached are the City Council's approved Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for FY 2013/2014. In approving this document, the Council included a list of top
ten (10) priorities, which consists of forty-six ( 46) of the one hundred twenty (120) identified
objectives. All objectives are placed in one of three categories (0 to 2 years; 2 to 5 years;
and 5+ years) based on their estimated time for completion. The completed document
also indicates which objectives were Funded (F), Not Funded (NF), or only required Staff
Effort (SE).
A written status report on the various priorities and objectives is not included as part of this
report. 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 Council questions when this matter
is considered.
Since 2001, the Council has reviewed the objectives prior to preparation of the budget with
the purpose of having more correlation between the Council approved objectives and City
Manager proposed budget.
It has been our practice to maintain a secondary list of objectives. In prior years, several
items have been elevated from this list to approved objectives by the Council. On May 15.
2013, the Council approved 53 items to remain on a list of Potential Objectives. The
Potential Objectives are attached to this report. At this time, no additional Potential
Objectives are proposed for City Council consideration.
