About the Strategic Plan and Annual Action Plans

The 2024-2028 Citywide Strategic Plan serves as the long-term vision for the future direction of the City. The foundation of the Strategic Plan is rooted in well-defined goals, strategic objectives and priorities, and measurable outcomes. It establishes organizational performance data and a continuous engagement loop with the community and City employees to inform City budgetary and policy decision making.   

This plan is the result of countless hours of community engagement, thoughtful discussion, and collaborative effort. It reflects the voices and aspirations of our diverse neighborhoods, our vibrant business community, and our passionate residents. 

Under the Strategic Plan, the City will create an annual short-term Strategic Doing Action Plan. The purpose of the Strategic Doing Action Plan is to intentionally move forward the visionary community ideas outlined in the 5-year Strategic Plan, into yearly action-oriented collaborations that result in measurable outcomes.  

Doing is a framework that turns the strategy into action. It empowers the City to swiftly establish action-oriented teams, help steer them toward measurable results, and adapt in real time to internal and external changes.
