MEMORANDUM <br />To:Saint Anthony Village City Council <br />From:Charlie Yunker, City Manager <br />Ashley Morello, Assistant City Manager <br />Date:December 9, 2025 <br />Request: Prepare for 2026 Goal Setting Retreat <br />BACKGROUND <br />The 2026 Goal Setting Retreat will take place January 14 through 16. The Goal Setting will reflect on <br />accomplishments from 2025 and identify next steps for 2026. The Goal Setting Retreat will result in a <br />2026 Strategic Plan as well as an updated Pyramid to reflect the City’s goals and subsequent action <br />steps. <br />In 2025, the City Council completed an exercise to define each goal. This effort began at a work session <br />in 2024 and was finalized during the 2025 Goal Setting Retreat. This year, Council is asked to revisit the <br />previously defined goals and will be asked to consider how the goal has changed or evolved in the past <br />year. This year, we are asking Council to reflect deeply on defining the goals and to consider the <br />complexities of the topics they discuss. This process and discussion will begin with this work session and <br />will continue at the Goal Setting Retreat. <br />Attached is the 2026 Goal Setting Prep Worksheet. Council does not need to fill out before the <br />December 9 meeting. Council and Staff will discuss and brainstorm at the work session. After the work <br />session Council will be asked to complete the worksheet individually and submit to staff by Friday, <br />December 19. <br />The 2026 Goal Setting retreat will not revisit the structural changes made to the Pyramid in 2022-2024, <br />nor will it update the mission, vision and values. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends Council to begin preparing for the 2026 Goal Setting Retreat. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />2025 Goals Definitions <br />2025 Pyramid <br />2026 Goal Setting Agenda - DRAFT <br />2026 Goal Setting Prep Worksheet <br />8
