MOUNDtSvVf EW City of Mounds View Staff Report Item No: 07G Meeting Date: March 11, 2013 Type of Business: Council Business To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: James Ericson, City Administrator Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8075 Adopting City Council Priorities for 2013 and Reaffirming Mission, Vision and Values Statements Introduction: On February 5, 2013, the City Council held a retreat with City department heads to discuss goals and priorities for 2013. One of the primary issues discussed revolved around the County Road 10 corridor. On February 25 and again on March 4, the Council reviewed the goals and priorities. Discussion: During the retreat with the Council, many goals were discussed which all could be related back to the County Road 10 corridor. Staff put together the attached statement which includes the City's previously adopted Mission, Vision and Values Statements. It was reiterated that the Council's indicated desire was to have a specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely goal for the year, acknowledging that the City has a wide variety of essential services and core functions (e.g., code enforcement, street improvement program, public safety, economic development, etc.) which would remain priorities regardless. The statement was revised to include specific reference to working with MnDOT and Ramey County regarding the naming of the corridor. Recommendation: If the attached statement of priorities and restatement of the City's Mission, Vision and Values Statements accurately reflect the Council's desires, staff would recommend approving the attached Resolution 8075, a resolution adopting the City Council Priorities for 2013 and reaffirming the Mission, Vision and Values Statements. Respectfully submitted, J6,mu Ems, James Ericson City Administrator
