Review and Approval of the Five -year Strategic Plan <br />March 18, 2014 <br />Page 2 <br />The Strategic Plan includes a total of 145 strategies of which 106 are currently funded within the <br />budget. In order to prioritize and allocate funding to the remaining 39 unfunded strategies, staff <br />has prepared a matrix. The matrix identifies funding priorities in three categories; consensus (6 <br />to 7 stars), general consensus (5 stars) and all others (1 to 4 stars) in descending priority. It is <br />important to emphasize that the unfunded consensus strategies are equivalent to the $2M <br />included in the revised five -year budget forecast approved by the Mayor and Council at the <br />February 4t" City Council meeting. General consensus and all other remaining unfunded <br />strategies add up to $3.25M. <br />The strategic plan is a living document which features a framework that can be adjusted based <br />on the current needs of the community. On a periodic basis, the City will provide updates on the <br />progress and performance of each goal, objective, and strategy. As such, the plan may be <br />modified to ensure that stated goals are aligned with the needs of the community. Furthermore, <br />with the adoption of the 5 -year strategic plan, the strategic planning and budgeting process are <br />now linked to assure that the City's budget reflects City Council and community priorities. <br />With the development and implementation of the strategic plan, the City of Santa Ana reaffirms <br />its commitment to continue to provide exceptional services and programs to its community. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. However, funding will be appropriated in <br />April of 2014 based on Mayor and City Council approved strategic plan. <br />Attachment A — Final Draft Five -Year Strategic Plan <br />(Accessible on the City's website - http://www.ci.santa-ana.ca.us/stratevic-plaiining ) <br />65A -2 <br />
