Title
Strategic Plan 2013-2016
History
During the May 4, 2013, strategic planning meeting, the Village Board and community stakeholders came to a consensus on the following three strategic initiatives to guide the village’s activities through 2016:
1. Economic Development
2. Downtown Development
3. Quality of Life
Subsequently, each department has formulated objectives to advance each initiative, which have been rolled up into the attached strategic plan document. We have attempted to focus on the key objectives needed to meet the above strategic pillars defined by the Board, and leave the operational objectives at the staff level. The quality of life goal is quite broad, so we attempted to break it down into functional areas: enhance core services; maintain and improve parks, facilities, and open lands; maintain or enhance intra-Orland transportation; enhance two-way communication with the community; and public safety.
The three initiatives will also set a framework for our performance management program. This will allow us to track our progress in advancing each initiative, and make adjustments if the desired results are not being achieved.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve to formally adopt the Strategic Plan 2013-2016 as presented.
