2013 GOAL REVIEW WORKSHOP <br />Eighteen participants took part in this year's goal setting session. 2002 through 2012 goals were <br />reviewed, with those present agreeing that several goals should be carried forward. Participants <br />then offered their suggestions for additional goals that the City should accomplish during the <br />year 2013 and beyond. <br />Each person ranked their top five goals from the list of 19 possible goals generated at this <br />workshop. (Jeff Heikke had to leave early and did not vote.) The rankings assigned 5 points for <br />the top goal priority, 4 points for the second, 3 for the third, etc. Tabulations were done based <br />upon the total points received for each goal. Tabulations were broken down by elected officials, <br />non - elected officials, and a total for all participants. <br />In reviewing previous years' Goals (2002 through 2012), it was noted that during this time <br />period the City accomplished 58 goals.
