<br />ADVICE AND NEXT STEPS TO THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER <br />(Staff advice is in italics) <br /> <br /> <br />Work session on GMP’s. <br /> <br />Get together with staff to synthesize information, place data in groups, develop specific <br />statements, present to Mayor for review and then to council for discussion. <br /> <br /> <br />Schedule quickly a work session to re-write council vision documents. <br />Schedule work sessions on key topics for vision, goals and strategies. <br />Follow up work session for council to review the “re-worked vision, goal and outcome” <br />document to refine it and get agreement and buy in from council so that there is clear <br />direction for council, staff and community about the direction council wants to go and <br />how we will get there. <br />Be sure to include council in your deliberations. <br /> <br />Direct staff to compose a vision, goals, strategies, actions and outcomes document based on <br />what we learned today. <br />Ensure staff produces the “new” or “revised” council goals in clear, concise format <br />reflecting each councilor’s input in a precise manner. Refer to these goals often (budget, <br />agenda setting, etc.) Bring back “strategies” for cc approval (separate list.) <br />Develop a set of tangible outcomes so that staff has clear direction on next steps. <br />Endeavor to produce goal statements with clear, deliverable outcomes. Provide as much <br />clarity as possible regarding goals and initiative so we recognize when we achieve our <br />outcomes and can celebrate our success. <br /> <br />Link outcomes ?to strategies? to goals? to vision. <br />Reflect outcomes in the budget overtly and specifically. <br /> <br />Rework and get buy in on new vision and goals statements. <br /> <br /> <br />Ensure council votes to ratify goals. <br />Let us vote on priorities for the immediate future. Then condense. <br />Come to closure on vision, values and goal. Inventory current issues and consider how <br />they fit with goals and whether focusing on worst or best. <br />Help us (staff ) focus on CC vision goals. <br /> <br />Communicate vision, outcomes and strategies to the public and report progress on a <br />regular basis. <br />Share work with department staff as it progresses to get feedback. Share final or draft <br />with community and neighborhood groups. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 20 <br />
