Process

Strategic planning is the process by which a Town determines what it intends to achieve in the future and how it will get there. This process involves developing a vision for the Town’s future and determining the necessary goals, priorities, and action steps to achieve that vision. 

A strategic plan serves as the community's roadmap and it is used to prioritize initiatives, goals, projects, resources, and department operations. The strategic plan is a big-picture document directing efforts and resources toward a clearly defined vision. Town staff will be responsible for prioritizing and planning specific projects and operations based on the overall goals and themes specified by the Strategic Plan.
