DISCUSSION
The Five -year Strategic Plan was unanimously approved by the City Council on March 18, 2014
with the implementation to coincide with the start of the new 2014 -15 fiscal year. Since July 1,
staff has been making the necessary modifications to align City efforts with the Strategic Plan. In
addition, staff has implemented a number of City Council recommendations as indicated below.
On July 1, 2014, the City Council provided direction to incorporate elements of the Five -year
Strategic Plan into the format of the City Council meeting agendas. In response to this request,
the following items have been incorporated into the agenda:
• Statement of the Vision, Mission and Guiding Principles
• Indication of the Strategic Plan webpage address
• Identification of the Goal, Objective and Strategy associated with each agenda item
• Request for Council Action (RFCA's) reports have been modified to include a new
"Strategic Plan Alignment" section that identifies a nexus between the recommended
action and the 5 -year Strategic Plan.
In addition to changes to the City Council agenda, staff is in the process of modifying the format
of the City Council Monthly Report to present information and demonstrate progress in alignment
with the Five -year Strategic Plan. Changes to the monthly report will commence with the July
monthly report which is scheduled to be available on Thursday, August 14.
Furthermore, the Five -year Strategic Plan has been translated into Spanish and Vietnamese and
available on our website at http: / /www.santa- ana.org /strategic- planning /. Copies of the plan are
available for review at both Santa Ana Public Library locations and Clerk of the Council Office.
