S t r at e g i c P l a n Fiscal Years 2014-2015
About the Strategic Planning Process The Commission Strategic Planning Workshop took place in March 2013. City staff developed a workshop manual to provide the Commission with summaries and highlights from the many sources of information used to analyze the City’s financial condition, operational performance, customer requirements, and the forces at work in our economic, demographic, and legislative environment. We have used rich and varied sources of data to prepare the information including: Residential Survey (2013) Five-Year Forecast Slice of the Springs Summary Situational Analysis
Business Survey (2012) SWOT Analysis (2013) KIO & Initiative Update Environmental Scan
Careful attention to the Situational Analysis is indicative of the organizational commitment to data-driven decision-making. It completes the ultimate feedback loop, where organizational direction from the City Commission is not set until market information, customer input, performance data, and all other inputs are considered.
MISSION To be the premier community in which to live, work, and raise a family.
CORE VALUES Customer Focus Offer exemplary customer service and achieve customer satisfaction by soliciting feedback and improving when necessary.
Leadership Create an atmosphere of innovation and establish an inspiring vision for government that works better and costs less.
Empowered Employees Empower staff to make decisions and continuously improve the organizations’ service.
Continuous Quality Improvement Use customer feedback to drive quality improvements on a continuous basis.
Sustainability Work toward efficient and cost-effective solutions to protect and conserve natural resources, while promoting green awareness in the community.
