The annual work plan reflects <br />Council's priorities and includes only those items that require City Council involvement <br />such as policy direction, guidance, or approval. The City Council work plan also helps <br />staff prioritize internal work plans and schedule the work that is needed to bring to City <br />Council for engagement. <br />This is the last of a series of meetings planned to craft and finalize the 2025 City <br />Council Work Plan. Previously, work plans were organized by programs and contained <br />a mix of strategic initiatives, programs, and tasks. For 2025, staff proposed taking an <br />opportunity with the unique timing of the first resident survey in four years and the ten- <br />year Comprehensive Plan Revision to build on existing strategic alignment of the work <br />plan <br />The City Council met in July and identified these four areas of focus for 2025: <br />• Economic Vitality <br />• Core Services <br />• Safety <br />• Affordable Housing <br />Additionally, the City Council determined all work plan items should be viewed through <br />the lenses of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) and Environmental Sustainability. <br />These priorities and lenses align with the 2024 Resident Survey, the City Council <br />affirmed Comprehensive Plan Vision and Values, and were used to inform the 2025- <br />2026 Budget. <br />Staff has applied programs and tasks to each priority area, in line with City Council's <br />expectations for the item and is presenting them for review and discussion. Once <br />approved, the work plan will be used to set advanced agenda items and inform staff <br />priorities that are strategically aligned with community values and interests. <br />Links to Resources: <br />- 2024 Council Work Plan <br />- Programs <br />- 2024 Resident Survey <br />CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION <br />
