BACKGROUND:
As part of this year’s budget process that began in March 2022, the City Council held a
workshop on March 9, 2022, to start formulating the City Council Goals for FY 2022-23.
This practice allows goals, which in many cases require funding, to align with the City’s
budget. On June 21, 2022, the City Council approved FY 2022-23 City Council Goals
concurrent with adopting the City budget to ensure funding of the goals. For FY 2022-23,
the City Council Goals took on a new look by moving to a cloud-based program called
Monday.com. This program tracks the six overarching goals using a Gantt chart template
(Attachment A). Monday.com presents the goals in a user-friendly format that allows the
City Council, Staff, and the public to follow and monitor the progress of each goal more
easily. Furthermore, it assesses how long a project should take, determines the resources
needed, and prepares the order to complete the task.
This evening, Staff is presenting the first quarterly update on the 25 projects that fall under
the six overarching goals for FY 2022-23.
1
DISCUSSION:
Although many of the projects were carried over from the last fiscal year and have
retained past descriptions.This first quarterly review of the City Council Goals, is to track
the progress of projects since July 1 (Attachment A). In other words, a reset of the tracking
based on this current fiscal year. Each project corresponds to one of the six over-arching
goals and identifies each goal’s status.
Each project has "tasks" that generally describe the work needed to accomplish the
project. The status of each task is tracked based on a color description that aligns with
the current City Council Goals and indicates whether it is falling behind, not started, on
target, or completed, as described below:
For the purposes of these quarterly reports, the attached Gantt chart will only represent
the tracking of the goals and projects beginning in July 2022 and concluding in June 2023.
Below are the six general categories identified as overarching goals and the 25 projects
assigned to accomplish each of the goal.
