Committee forwards revised strategic goals (including housing and accountability) to Committee of the Whole
Summary
Committee reviewed and recommended the 2027 strategic goals—moving several items between Goal 4 (government accountability) and Goal 5 (economic well‑being and housing), clarifying language on employment opportunities, and agreed to send the package to the Committee of the Whole for July consideration.
Committee members reviewed proposed edits to the city's strategic goal set, focusing on Goal 4 (government accountability) and Goal 5 (economic well‑being and housing). Staff explained Goal 4 language centers on fiscal responsibility, transparency and technology; Goal 5 emphasizes economic growth, attainable housing and incentives. As one member proposed, the committee revised phrasing to replace "job centers" with "employment opportunities" to clarify intent.
Committee discussed neighborhood risk‑factor placement and whether items should be directed to the Community Development or Public Safety committees. Staff noted overlap and suggested the items could be discussed again at Committee of the Whole on July 6. After discussion the committee moved and voted 5-0 to recommend the proposed 2027 goals as discussed to the Committee of the Whole.
