For several years, Council has had an evolving list of Strategic Priorities. Various iterations of this list have attempted to quantify things like percentage complete, responsible departments, number of staffing hours needed to complete, etc. 

At the Council’s most recent meeting to discuss this evolving list of priorities, Council provided direction to revisit the format of the list and the overall approach. The staff report from this meeting is included as Attachment 2. Most notably, Council requested a more hierarchical approach to priorities to better represent the difference between strategic initiatives, priorities and the tasks or ‘goals’ to be accomplished. 

Councilmember Baron agreed to work with Staff on preparing a revised approach to the Council’s priority list.  Attachment 1, is the current draft of those efforts.  While not yet fully completed, Council is being asked to provide feedback on the draft and the direction it has taken.  Staff will be prepared to give a more thorough presentation of the revised approach at the meeting in order to get feedback from the full Council.
