In approving this document, the Council included a list of top ten (10) priorities, which consists of thirty -three (33) of the one hundred eight (108) identified objectives. Also attached is a list of the objectives by department. As in past 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 year. In fact, many of the objectives will take several years to fully complete. A written status report on the various priorities and objectives is not included as part of this report. The City Council Monthly 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. In August 2006, the Council approved a list of 36 items to remain on a list of Potential Objectives. The list of Potential Objectives is attached to this report. For convenience, fourteen (14) additional Potential Objectives beginning with No. 37 are added to that list for Council consideration.
