AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager 6�k'
DATE: January 27, 2010 (CC Meeting of 02/03/10)
SUBJECT: Consider Status Report on Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for Fiscal Year 2009/2010 and Direction for Fiscal Year
2010/2011
Attached are the City Council's approved Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for FY 2009/2010. In approving this document, the Council included a list of top
ten (10) priorities, which consists of forty-one (41) of the one hundred thirteen (113)
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 Bimonthly 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 20,
2009, the Council approved a list of 63 items to remain on a list of Potential Objectives.
The list of Potential Objectives is attached to this report. At this time, no additional
Potential Objectives are proposed for City Council consideration.
