The priority setting process began with\nstaff creating work plans to articulate the special projects of City departments. This process\nis timely because of the start of the next two-year budget cycle in early 2008, and the\naddition of new members to the Executive Management Team.\nPriority Setting Process Purpose\nThe purpose of the entire priority setting process is to:\nProvide Council direction on priorities for the work plan for the next 2-3 years.\nProvide an opportunity to strengthen Council understanding of staff's current work plans\nand resources available to carry them out.\nCreate mutual understanding and agreement between the Council and Executive\nManagement Team on a process of reporting progress on work plans.\nCreate mutual understanding and agreement between the Council and Executive\nManagement Team on a process of modifying priorities once adopted (adding/deleting\nprojects to meet changing needs) that includes adjusting existing priorities or adding\nresources to ensure new projects can be completed and Council priorities met.\nThe focus of the workshop held on September 11, 2007, was the following:\nIdentification of factors affecting the City over the next several years\nConfirmation or modification of draft citywide objectives\nUnderstanding of current work plans for City departments\nInitial understanding of Council priorities\nA second Council/Executive Management Team workshop will be held in November (date to\nbe determined), in order to accomplish the following:\nUnderstanding of the resources needed to successfully accomplish Council priorities.\nAgreement by Council on priorities for attention for next 2 years\nAgreement on process of reporting progress on priorities\nAgreement on process of modifying the adopted priorities\nWorkshop Agenda\nThe agenda for the September 11, 2007, workshop contained the following items:\nEnvironmental scan and SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats)\ndiscussion\nDiscuss draft citywide objectives\nDiscuss current work plans\nIdentify Council priorities\nManagement Partners, Inc.\n1", "path": "CityCouncil/2007-09-11.pdf"} {"body": "CityCouncil", "date": "2007-09-11", "page": 6, "text": "Listen\nRespect the work that went into this\nAlameda's Recent Successes\nCouncil members and staff brainstormed some of the successes of the City of Alameda over\nthe last few years.\nNew Library\nRestoration of Alameda Theater\nRecycling rate/energy conservation\nNew developer in place for the former Navy property\nFocus on infrastructure\nPre-hospital services\nRedevelopment projects\nBreakers at Bayport\nParks improvements\nNo traffic fatalities\nReview of telecom operations\nRevisions to street sweeping program\nLights in crosswalks\nFerry ridership\nGolf transition\nHigh performing Executive Management Team\nIncreased transparency\nFederal grant awards\nMedia outreach (web casting; press releases)\nWebsite\n\"Access Alameda\"\nEnvironmental Scan\nDeputy City Manager Lisa Goldman presented an environmental scan of factors influencing\nthe City.
