At the same time, this is a continuation of a <br />multi-year process to review the City’s Strategic Pyramid – building on work in 2022-2024. To that end, <br />Council can expect to have discussions related to the following: <br />Clarify the meaning of each goal, specifically the future impact each seeks to achieve – what is <br />success? <br />Align goals with our other plans (e.g., Climate, Comprehensive) <br />Identify and prioritize strategies within each, ensuring that we stay within the City’s scope of <br />influence. <br />Reality test the above against the City’s personnel, fiscal, and physical capacities. <br />The group will not revisit the structural changes already made to the pyramid in 2022-2024, nor will we <br />revisit revisions to the mission, vision, or values during this event. This goal setting will focus on defining <br />the goals and considering short term and long-term goals. In preparation, we are working on a number <br />of items: <br />Agenda – We will be meeting Wednesday through Friday, January 15-17, 2025. The specific <br />agenda is still being finalized <br />Work Session – The Tuesday, December 10 session will include a preparatory conversation with <br />Staff. <br />3
