Title
Update on City Council 2024 Priorities for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 (Rich Lee, Assistant City Manager)
label
RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council provide feedback to staff on the format, frequency, and overall content of the quarterly update of the City Council's 2024 Priorities.
Body
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
During the City Council retreat on January 27, 2024, each City Councilmember discussed their individual priorities for 2024 and determined by consensus which priorities to include in the preliminary list. In the intervening time between the City Council retreat and this quarterly update, staff evaluated each priority in greater detail to determine various attributes, including:
* Projected Cost
* Targeted Completion Date
* Ranking
* Feasibility
* Lead Department(s)
* Supporting Department(s)
The PowerPoint presentation, including as Attachment 1, presents each priority in descending order of recommended ranking - an "A" List, a "B" List, and a "C" List. Staff requests that the City Council provide feedback on the overall presentation of the quarterly priorities update, including ranking of specific priorities (i.e. the List that each priority is included) and the projected time frame. Staff requests concurrence on what priorities are achievable in 2024, as it is not feasible to make meaningful progress on every priority that the City Council reached consensus on during the January 2024 retreat.
FISCAL IMPACT
While providing staff with feedback on the City Council's 2024 Priorities does not have any direct financial impact, each priority was evaluated to determine what resources are needed to bring the priority to fruition. In some cases, the associated resource is staff time, which is already reflected in the operating budget. In other cases, the associated resource is an additional cost that should be evaluated through the overall budget process and fiscal condition of the operating fund.
