Overview

The City Management Program (CMP) integrates existing and necessary management tools and processes to provide us the means to develop a roadmap of where we're intending to go and a way of knowing whether we're making progress in getting there.

The CMP is founded on Balanced Scorecard principles and integrates strategic planning, performance monitoring, and budget decision making. The strategic planning element of it provides us a common vision, goals, and objectives to ensure that all of the Groups and Departments in the City are working toward the same end. The performance monitoring arm of the CMP provides the data to understand if we're making progress in getting where we want to go.

This site provides our strategic plan--our City-wide mission, vision, goals and objectives--as well as Department-specific tactical plans and performance measures support the City's overall vision and plan, but also lay out priorities specific to the department. The City's vision, mission, and values are shown below.
