SUBJECT: Consider Proposed City Goals and Objectives for Fiscal
Year 2001/2002
The City Council has previously received the list of proposed
City Goals and Objectives for Fiscal Year 2001/2002 (copy
attached). There are more proposed objectives listed than can
reasonably be expected to be accomplished with current staff in
one year. In fact, there are over 100 objectives proposed for
consideration. With such a relatively large list of desired
objectives, it is difficult to have a real sense of priorities.
I recommend that the City Council develop a list of ten
priorities that would allow staff to focus and concentrate its
efforts on the most important items. The other objectives would
remain on the list as proposed (unless removed by the Council)
and continue to be worked on as time permits, but staff would
focus on these ten items. Some of the items encompass more than
one proposed objective, but the following are proposed as the
City's top ten priorities for 2001/2002 (in no order of
priority).
• Construct new City Hall and Corporate Yard Facility. (F2, F28
& F35)
• Construct police station. (F22)
• Comprehensive update of General Plan Land Use and Circulation
Elements. (G12)
• Widen Los Angeles Avenue /New Los Angeles Avenue (SR118) to
six travel lanes from Tierra Rejada Road to SR 23 Freeway and
traffic signal interconnect system. (C3 a),b), d), & e) & 4)

• Widening of Moorpark Avenue /Walnut Canyon Road from Los
Angeles Avenue (SR118) to north City limits. (C14 & C16)
• Construct Arroyo Vista Community Park Phase II. (F3 & F31)
• Construct a community aquatic facility. (F15)
• Enhance open space and greenbelt areas and determine
feasibility of establishing a trail system along the Arroyo
Simi. (G5, G6 & G18)
• Adopt Housing Element and develop program to encourage new
multi and single family housing on under - utilized sites
within the Downtown Specific Plan area. (B7 & F9)
Each of the in -house department heads and Assistant City Manager
have suggested a list of priority objectives. A copy of their
suggestions have been previously provided to the City Council.
As a reminder, Councilmember Mikos has requested that the
Council consider revising the schedule for reviewing the
objectives. This can be accomplished as part of this agenda
item.

AGENDA REPORT
CITY OF MOORPARK
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager
DATE: May 10, 2001 (CC Meeting of May 16, 2001)
SUBJECT: Consider Proposed City Goals and Objectives for Fiscal Year
2001/2002
BACKGROUND:
The City Council goal setting process has historically recognized the
City's relatively small staff, the moderate amount of staff time
available for working on objectives vis -a -vis the routine day -to -day
responsibilities, and the changing of priorities during the year as
the Council and staff addressed unanticipated items or items requiring
attention due to external or internal factors.
Beginning with the 1996/97 FY, the City Council approved a list of
seven citywide goals that reflected the City's overall commitment to
its Mission Statement. The process attempted to have a more direct
relationship with the budget process. The Citywide goals were
developed to reflect City priorities across all departments.
DISCUSSION:
Attached is the list of proposed "Goals and Objectives for FY
2001/2002." As in previous years, more objectives are proposed than
have been completed or otherwise recommended for removal from the
list. This reflects staff's limited time to address special projects
as well as the needs and desires of a growing and maturing community.
The changes from the 2000/2001 approved objectives are shown in
legislative format. The order of the listed objectives does not denote
a suggested priority. The responsible department is noted in
abbreviated form in parentheses after the objective; e.g., City
Manager's office is shown as (CM) , City Clerk's office as (CC) .
Although there may be more than one department tasked with work on a
specific objective, only the department with primary responsibility is
shown (except for a few objectives). The Assistant City Manager (ACM)

has been added as a responsible department. This recognizes areas of
responsibility aside from the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency (MRA) and
now separate Administrative Services Department (AS).
Attached is a May 9, 2001, memorandum from Mary Lindley, Director of
Community Services, listing the Recommended Objectives and Park
Improvement Projects from the Parks and Recreation Commission. These
can be discussed by the City Council and Commission at the upcoming
May 24, 2001, joint meeting. With the exception of looking at lighting
the Miller Park softball field, the Commission and staff concur with
the recommended objectives. I have included an item on the attached
list of secondary objectives to consider feasibility of lighting
additional park and recreation facilities.
The Planning Commission's consideration of goals and objectives is not
scheduled until its May 14, 2001, meeting (its April 23 meeting was
canceled). As a result, no specific items in the draft objectives
reflect comments from the Planning Commission.
As part of the Council's selection of objectives in 1998/99, a
secondary list of objectives was established. The following seven
items were included on this list:
1. Conduct a community -wide survey to measure the level of
satisfaction residents feel about City services, develop a
program to regularly solicit public input and feedback regarding
service satisfaction, and continue to implement a system to track
customer requests and complaints. (CC)
2. Tape a minimum of two (2) special City- sponsored events or
meetings for replay supporting public information and community
promotion efforts and evaluate the feasibility of taping a video
about Moorpark City government. (CC)
3. Design and construct electrical system for decorative lighting on
High Street, utilizing recently constructed underground conduit
system. (PW)
4. Implement Neighborhood Preservation Program. (CD)
S. Propose legislation to allow cities and counties more discretion
in establishing speed limits that are enforceable by Radar. (PW)

6. Conduct an Organization and Management Study and prepare an
implementation plan. (CM & AS)
7. Analyze potential for franchising of telephone services providers
that provide cable television services. (AS)
Item No. 6 was added back and subsequently removed from the objectives
in 2000/2001. In 1999/2000, four items were added to the secondary
list as follows:
1. Taping monthly announcements of upcoming city- sponsored
activities for replay on the City Government Channel.
2. Administer contract for Arroyo Simi Trail feasibility study.
3. Evaluate feasibility of establishing a teen center.
4. Apply for "Tree City U.S.A." designation after adoption of
Amended Tree Ordinance.
Item No. 2, above, has been added as a proposed objective for
2001/2002.
While not recommended by staff at this time, other potential
objectives, which could be added to the secondary list for
consideration in future years, include the following:
1. Evaluate feasibility of lighting additional parks and recreation
facilities including Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP) multi-
purpose court and second softball field, two basketball courts at
Mountain Meadows Park, and proposed skatepark.
2. Develop inventory of natural open space properties owned by City
and HOA's and other privately owned property restricted by
conservation easement or other development condition or
limitation.
3. Install winter holiday decorations on street light poles at
various locations in the City.
4. Adopt formal traffic policies.
5. Expand subsidized taxi service to include low income Moorpark
Senior Citizens.

Buttercreek Park Property
During last year's budget deliberations, the City Council received a request to consider
the construction of a park within the original Buttercreek tract. The City owns
approximately 9 acres along the north side of the Simi Arroyo, just west of Tierra Rejada
Road. The property is leased to Boething Treeland Farms, a local plant nursery.
The cost of developing a 9 acre park with very minimal improvements (grading and
drainage, irrigation, domestic water, hydroseeding, and parking) is estimated to be
approximately $1.5 million. Annual maintenance costs of a 9 acre park without a
restroom is approximately $30,000.
Due to the cost of constructing and maintaining a 9 acre park and the easy access the
000
residents in the Buttercreek tract have to Glenwood Park and Arroyo Vista Community
Park, it is not recommended that the City undertake the development of a new park in
the Buttercreek tract. Villa Campesina Park is also in close proximity to the Buttercreek
tract.

objectives that I believe should have priority during this next
fiscal year. They are listed below in the same order as they
are found in the full list of draft FY 2001/2002 Goals and
Objectives. Because you requested that we limit our priorities
to ten, I didn't include in my list those objectives that I
thought would be done anyway because there is a legal
requirement (such as implement GASB 34 requirements and complete
the Housing Element).
A.7. Develop and implement an enhanced city web site that
provides the public with a variety of information
about city services including separate web page for
recreation programs. (AS)
(Accomplishing this objective can also accomplish
A.S., if we follow the Orange County Home Page
example.)
C.3. Work with Caltrans to complete a number of projects
including: (PW)
a) Construct New Los Angeles Avenue Bridge widening;
b) Installation of a traffic signal interconnect

Subject: For June 20 Goals and Objectives Discusion
Good morning to all,
This is FYI and please (councilmembers), do not respond to this email. Save your responses for during open
meeting discussions, in tight of the Brown Act.
Attached is my list of top ten items to be considered during our goals and objectives discussion at tonite's
meeting.
I would appreciate it if staff could make copies to give to all council members tonite for the meeting.
Also, to my fellow councifinembers especially - -I really would like to have a discussion tonite, as noted in a
reminder by the city manager in the staff report, about the timing and philosophy behind WHEN and HOW we
do this goals and objectives exercise so that it WILL be even more responsive to the budget process than it
currently is.
Regardless of whether you agree or disagree with me on this item. I hope that you will truly be willing to at
least discuss it this time. I think that the discussion on it has been postponed long enough.
Thank you for your consideration.

'Rc: GNAS Bnd Objectives Discussion for June 20. 2001
Here are ten things, of perhaps equal priority, that Councilmember Mikos thinks we, as a city,
should be trying to spend some serious time on.
(These are other than processing the applications that normally come into the city, and the issues
that go with those, all which we have to do no matter what.)
1.1 High street/Downtown revitalization (especially for city and MRA -owned properties) to get
some economic development going for something.
1.2 Website upgrade, including online class registration, and more posted city documents
(especially staff reports for each council, planning commission, and parks commission
meeting) —for better citizen usability; also possibly including online city surveying (I have a
suggestion on that).
13 Comprehensive Arroyo Simi Management Planning including not only trails but a real plan
to make the Arroyo Simi a "greenway" through the city ---one that makes it a scenic
centerpiece that balances recreation/trails, environmental habitat preservation/restoration,
flood control, and selected appropriate development. I see the SDI open space property next
to arroyo and Tabor Ranch as a perfect place for wildlife observation, trails and wetland
habitat restoration. It could be a location for the Moorpark Historical Society Museum (if we
don't use High Street). THIS IS RELATED TO THE OSCAR UPDATE THAT DID NOT
ORIGINALLY INCLUDE ENOUGH IN IT ABOUT THIS, PERHAPS THE LATEST
UPDATE WILL.
1.4 Complete OSCAR, Land Use, Circulation, and Housing GP updates ---at least the first three
of which should include the above management issues about Arroyo Simi.
1.5 Make headway to get more AFFORDABLE HOUSING STOCK built and ready for
occupancy as soon as possible.
6 LA Ave_ (East) upgrade —get right of way acquisition done and project moving forward
faster, rather than languishing as a low priority_ 1 believe this must be moved to a higher
priority than it has had to date. I'm encouraged by recent discussions at Transportation and
Streets Committee about this but i would like to see whole council agree that it is a priority_
1.7 Swimming pool, skatepark, and Expansion of Arroyo Vista community Park, Phase II
1.8 Organize and implement a stronger and more efficient Code Enforcement program, to
include clearer policies and procedures (probably including a manual). This may include
automating some of the response letters, checklists, etc., with the help of information systems
folks and possibly consultant Delp. Consider the issue of fines for egregious behavior as part
of the program, comparing with what other cities do, to help us decide whether or not that
might be appropriate.
1.9 Develop open space collaboration and preservation strategies for Tierra Rejada greenbelt,
other potential greenbelt areas, AND for natural open space inside the city, including how we
can manage it and make it appropriately accessible to the public (and not closed off to
homeowner association people only, for certain areas).
1.10 New City Hall, Public Safety Building, and Two Fire Station Planning, financing, and/or
Construction Activities
