Analysis:
From April to June 2023, the City Council and Executive Leadership Team underwent a comprehensive process to develop the FY 2023-2027 Strategic Plan (Plan). This process involved individual interviews with Council Members and Charter Officers, as well as workshops with the City Council and Department Heads to determine key priorities and projects for the next four fiscal years. The City Council adopted the Plan on October 3, 2023, through Resolution 2023-46.
The Strategic Plan includes eight overarching goals to be achieved through 23 major strategies and 98 tasks. Staff also identified over 70 key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the Plan's impact over time.
Staff has determined that the Plan is on track and successfully achieving its goals within the anticipated timeline. As of July 2024, the Plan is 41% complete, representing a 9% increase from the First Biannual Progress Update in January 2024. Moreover, an additional 43% of the Plan is currently in progress, with 14% upcoming, and 2% on hold.
Detailed information is available in the updated Implementation Action Plan (Attachment 1) and a high-level summary in Attachment 2. Following tonight's meeting, all approved documents will be posted on the City's website at www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/strategicplan <http://www.huntingtonbeachca.gov/strategicplan>. Staff is also working on a public-facing dashboard to illustrate the KPIs associated with each Strategic Plan Goal, which will be made available on the City's website at a future date.
