2012-2013 Performance Management Program Community Survey The City’s most recent community survey took place in the fall of 2011. It is suggested that the City conduct a survey on a biennial basis at a minimum. The Community Survey, along with the Community Vision, should be the basis for the City Council Goal-Setting and Work Plans. Community Visioning Process Over the past 20 years, the City has conducted two comprehensive citywide visioning exercises; Vista 2000 in 1992, and Imagine Roseville in 2006. It is suggested that the City conduct this type of exercise every 10-15 years to be facilitated by a professional planning consultant. The Community Vision should lay the foundation for all long-term planning, goal-setting, and city priorities. City Council Goal-Setting and Work Plans should begin with a review of the Community Vision. Financial Policy Review The Council should conduct a biennial review of the budget and financial policies that establish parameters for the adoption of a budget and capital improvement plan. Results Monitoring Both Performance Measurement and Financial Reviews represent look-back features of the Performance Management Program cycle. These processes ensure that emerging trends or unforeseen events are identified and managed. They also provide information that should be used in future planning and budgeting cycles. Short-Term Planning In addition to the annual Areas of Emphasis/Work Plan process, the City should also annually undertake a review of legislative or other operational impacts or trends that can have a significant impact on both day-to-day operations and long-term objectives. In addition, the City should also annually review its utility rates to ensure that the City’s water and sewer revenue sources are sufficient to accommodate operations and capital improvements. Strategic Plan The Strategic Plan is developed by City Staff in accordance with City Council goals. The Strategic Plan provides the framework for the Budget and Program Priorities and the Capital Improvement Plan. 11
