CITY OF SHAKOPEE Memorandum TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator SUBJECT: 2010-2011 Goals & Objectives DATE: February 3, 2010 Comment: Introduction: The City Council is asked to adopt Goals and Objectives for the City of Shakopee for 2010-2011. Background: On January 26, the City Council, along with department heads, met in a workshop setting to review two year goals and objectives. It first reviewed the 2008-2009 goals and objectives, and the progress that had been made towards those. In preparation for the January 26th workshop, each councilor had been asked to individually prepare three goals that he or she would like to see implemented during the next twenty-four months. The fifteen individual goals were as follows: 1. First A venue Corridor 2. Economic Development Plan 3. RemodellExpand Civic Center (Senior Center/2nd sheet of ice) 4. Code Enforcement/Aesthetics 5. Attract/Retaining Business (separating Public/Private functions) 6. Strengthen Public/Private Partnerships 7. Deal with Community change-old vs. new/north vs south of 169 8. Develop job growth/improve relations with realtors 9. Develop community-wide retail efforts 10. Provide for Stable finances 11. Prioritize services 12. Provide for business retention, and tax base retention 13. TH 10 1 corridor 14. 101 Bridge 15.69/169 Corridor Discussion ensued on the above fifteen goals. In addition, there was also a review of the 2008-2009 goals. By informal vote the Council indicated which of the previous goals could be consolidated, which could be deleted, which would remain as high priorities for the next two years. It was determined that certain existing goals (Ensure the City's Financial Health; Provide High Quality Cost Effective Services) are not just two year goals-they are part of the City's continuing core service principals. Similarly, there was also consensus that the City does do a good job of providing effective and efficient public works, public safety, and financial management services. While those need not be goals, reference should be made of them. The City Council then gave direction on which of the Goals and Objectives they wanted to see as priorities for the City's organization to pursue in the next two years. They directed staff to review those, and bring them back for further discussion and adoption. Product: Staff feels that the priorities that Council identified can be divided into three major focus areas: Transportation Economic Development Strengthen Community Identity and Connections In reviewing the individual goals which were ranked highly, staff is proposing that Council consider adopting for 2010-2011 three larger statements of focus areas, under which several ofthe specific items discussed.. A graphic model is shown on the attachment. The focus areas and their subgroups could be grouped as follows: 1. Transportation: CR 101/ First Avenue Marschall Road! CR 17 CR 21/ 18 River crossings/bridges (CRI0l, TH 41) CR 69/ US 169 Pedestrian Trails Transit 2. Economic Development: Downtown Retail Industrial Parks Valley Green Dean Lakes West End (69/169/41) Job Retention/Business Retention Tax Base Preservation Address foreclosure impacts (from stajj) 3. Strengthen Community Identity and Connections: Encourage diversity regarding involvement in the City Reach out to diverse groups Improve communications and feedback throughout the community Explore community survey Incorporate new residents Provide connection between new Shakopee/old Shakopee; N-S 169 Explore ways to make connections, incl. partnerships/events/forums/venues Community Center Improvements Provide for Senior Center Second Sheet of ice Explore funding for park development (referenda/park foundation) Explore public/private partnerships These three focus areas form a triangle. We suggest that for the two year model, the focus areas will surround the city's core principles. Two of those principles were identified, and others are being suggested by staff as being important to the City: . Fiscally Responsible;. . Effective and efficient core services (public works, public safety, and financial management) . Ethical and Professional Service Two other issues that were discussed, but for which no formal direction was made, are included for further direction from Council. Those are: Fence at the Women's Prison Election cycle, including term of office for the Mayor. Recommendation: We recommend that the Council adopt this triangular model of the goals and objectives to be pursued during 2010-2011. Council should also direct staff to review and discuss these goals within the focus areas, and come back to Council with recommended action steps that are needed for implementation. Action Required: If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, adopt the Goals and Objectives model for 2010-2011 as described, and direct staffto return with action steps.
