SUMMARY: Every two years, the District establishes strategic planning goals and objectives. From time to time, the Board has reviewed and revised its Mission, Vision, and Values. During the past 25 years, the District has utilized an outside facilitator to guide the goal-setting process ten times, often over multiple sessions. The District has also historically utilized internal resources – a series of meetings between the General Manager and Directors, and management staff, to develop strategic planning goals six times during the same time period.
In March of 2020, the Board authorized a facilitated strategic planning session to help develop near-term and long-term goals for the District. Such goal development helps inform policy priorities for the Board, identify potential budget impacts, and set a foundation for evaluation of the performance of the General Manager. However, with the advent of Covid-19 the facilitated process was delayed in hopes that in-person meetings would return. When it became evident that would not be the case, it was decided to hold the strategic planning sessions via Zoom. Two half-day sessions were held with full Board participation on March 12th and March 26th, 2021. The sessions were guided by Dr. Richard Garcia of RJA Management Services – a service he also provided the District in 2001 and 2002.
Exhibit 13-A includes proposed strategic planning goals. The Board also chose to review and revise its proposed Mission, Vision, and Values, which is included as Exhibit 13-B.
RECOMMENDATION: The General Manager recommends the Board review,
discuss, edit as necessary, and adopt the proposed strategic planning goals and
objectives, as well as the proposed revised Mission, Vision, and Values.
