RECOMMENDATION:                     

Recommendation                     

Staff recommends the City Council approve a resolution establishing Council's goals for 2017.

Body

 

 

BACKGROUND:

The City Council met in a planning and goal setting study session on January 28, 2017.  The Council spent several hours discussing their priorities for the upcoming fiscal year.

 

 

DISCUSSION:

Among the responsibilities of a functional City Council is providing policy direction to the City government by establishing goals and objectives.  The City Manager and staff can then use the goals as a guidebook for city operations.  The likelihood of success increases when the entire organization is working toward the same end.

 

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

Many of the goals developed by Council can be achieved with existing resources.  In those cases where additional resources are required, the need will be addressed through the development of the budget for FY17-18, which Council will be reviewing in public meetings during the upcoming weeks.
