The Plan includes a <br /> mission, vision, guiding principles, six (6) Strategic Goals and objectives associated with each <br /> goal. A Board of County Commissioners' Performance Measure Working Group was formed and <br /> met in Spring 2024 to continue to develop the performance measures for each of the six (6) <br /> Strategic Goals. <br /> In Fall 2024 staff met in cross-departmental teams around the six (6) Strategic Goals to finalize <br /> the performance measures and discuss recommended revisions to the Strategic Plan objectives. <br /> The revisions to the objectives and draft performance measures were then reviewed for a final <br /> time by the Board of County Commissioners' Performance Measure Working Group. <br /> At the April 8, 2025 Work Session, the BOCC reviewed the revised objectives and draft <br /> performance measures. <br /> These performance measures will allow effective tracking of progress toward the Strategic Goals <br /> and ensure the Plan is achieving its intended outcomes by providing concrete data on how the <br /> County is performing against set objectives. The measures will be tracked quarterly. Twice each <br /> year, the County Manager's Office will prepare an update to the Board for each Strategic Goal <br /> including specific milestones and challenges. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with this item. <br /> ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN: This item supports all of the goals of the Strategic Plan. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board adopt the revised objectives <br /> and performance measures for the Countywide Strategic Plan for FY 2024-25 through FY 2028- <br /> 29. <br />
