action steps that staff members or others must take to lead in a timely way to the desired <br />outcomes stated for each objective. <br />With regard to the use of the term "priority", staff recommend that it be viewed more narrowly <br />than the term "goal", "Objectives" would be the building blocks for "goals", and goals would be <br />assessed by the Board for differentiation with regard to priority, Not all goals need necessarily <br />be considered priorities, Same might reflect a policy interest that the Board would like to <br />pursue, but only as time, staff, and financial resources permit, <br />On the other hand, the Board's tap-tier of priorities -for argument's sake, representing 8 to 12 <br />issue areas -would bring a strategic focus to the Board's annual workplan, All available time, <br />staff, and financial resources would be brought to bear to ensure the timely accomplishment of <br />those top-tier priorities. Other goals might be considered by the Board for assignment to <br />secondary or tertiary priority status, meaning work would proceed on these, but not to any <br />extent that would compromise the Board and staff's ability to progress with or complete the top- <br />tier priorities. <br />As a starting point for discussion, staff have listed below (in no particular order) six previously <br />identified or emerging issues that we recommend the Board consider among its top priorities far <br />the rest of 2006: <br />• Continued planning for, and implementation of initial development phases of, the Twin <br />Creeks school/park campus <br />• Continuation of the process for updating the County's comprehensive land use plan and <br />related elements <br />• Updating the County's capital funding policy, to include the disposition of State lottery <br />proceeds, to clarify the planning for pay-as-you-go funding allocations that will underwrite <br />the County and schools' 2007-17 Capital Investment Plans <br />• Assessment of the desirability of establishing a timeline for the County's next general <br />obligation bond referenda, and (if appropriate) implementation of preliminary planning <br />steps <br />• Implementation of the next phase of the Efland-Buckhorn sewer utility expansion plan <br />and related objectives to be identified through the Efland-Mebane small area planning <br />process <br />• Implementation of the .lustice Facilities expansion project, and planning for related <br />impacts nn the County's downtown campus <br />The Board may have different views about the definitions and implications of <br />goals/objectives/priorities, and about whether there are higher priorities than some or all of the <br />issues identified in the foregoing list, Whatever priorities the Board may establish, it is <br />particularly important that the Board select a manageable number to which staff can commit the <br />necessary time and resources to accomplish in a timely manner, <br />Work would continue on other issues that do not make the top of the list, However, proposed <br />additions to the Board and staff workplan for the rest of the year would continuously be <br />evaluated for their potential impact on the prospects for successfully carrying out the top <br />priorities, The timelines and resource allocations for these lower-tiered priorities and goals <br />would be adjusted so as not to adversely affect the accomplishment of the top tier priorities, <br />Staff intend to bring back during the subsequent few BOCC meetings - for each of the selected <br />top priorities - a recommended goal statement with key action steps and major milestones for <br />
