Carson City reviews strategic-plan annual report; board closes tactic on clerk/recorder split
Summary
The Board received the city’s strategic-plan annual report from Deputy City Manager Stephanie Hicks and unanimously approved closing a tactic that had explored splitting the clerk/recorder position; staff will begin planning the next five-year strategic plan this winter.
Carson City’s Board of Supervisors received the city’s Strategic Plan annual report and unanimously approved closing one tactic that had explored whether to split the clerk and recorder functions.
Deputy City Manager Stephanie Hicks presented the annual report and a new public dashboard that tracks the city’s 136 strategic-plan tactics. Hicks said the board will begin planning the next five-year strategic plan this winter and emphasized the administration’s effort to put measurable performance indicators in place. She reported that, across the plan, staff identified a subset of tactics as complete, on schedule, ongoing, or overdue and recommended closing the tactic that had evaluated separating the clerk and recorder positions.
Hicks highlighted accomplishments during the fiscal year, including completion of the master plan update, automated data entry for criminal cases, work on a juvenile facility needs assessment and nearing operational readiness of Fire Station 55 and the city’s Emergency Operations Center. She also noted there are 10 tactics overdue but most remain in progress.
Board members discussed multiple items in the report. Supervisors raised economic development, better support for existing local businesses, and reuse options for a historic engine house (discussed in packet as the roundhouse/engine house). Supervisor Geomey and Supervisor Horton specifically asked staff to keep exploring economic development options and to continue work on possible arch placement or embedding it into City Hall as a way to connect history and new facilities. Supervisor Sheedy asked staff about timing for implementing a statewide voter-registration system (AB 422 and AB 423) and staff said they would confirm testing and rollout details with the clerk-recorder’s office.
Supervisor Geomey moved to accept the report and to close the tactic investigating a split of the clerk and recorder; the motion passed unanimously. Hicks said the recommended closure relates to an item introduced by a previous clerk-recorder and that a separate tactic addressing the public administrator component remains in the plan.
The board thanked staff for compiling the dashboard and data and directed departments to continue refining performance measures ahead of the next planning cycle.
