The Envision Roseville project identified eight city aspirations, which the <br />Commission reviewed. <br /> <br />Following the conclusion of Envision Roseville, the City entered into an agreement with <br />Inspiring Site, a planning consultant, to develop a citywide strategic plan to guide the City’s <br />efforts in achieving the community’s aspirations. In late 2024 and early 2025, the City Council <br />and department heads participated in a series of facilitated work sessions. These sessions resulted <br />in a set of shared values—accountability, community, equity, safety, and integrity—as well as a <br />strategy tree that documented the City’s values, mission, strategic directions, and vision: A <br />vibrant, safe, and inclusive community. <br /> <br />The Commission reviewed the six desired impact definitions for the strategic directions, with <br />special focus on the Parks and Natural Environment Strategic Direction: "Parks and natural <br />resources are preserved, maintained, and enhanced to ensure a broad cross-section of community <br />members actively use and participate in our parks, activities, and facilities." <br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />
