CITY OF CARLSBAD --AGENDA BILL 31
AB# Ii/f0 S : TITLE REVIEW OF 1998-99 GOAL
MTG. $-~r -59 ACHIEVEMENTS AND UPDATE ON THE
DEPT. ESTABLISHMENT OF 1999-00 GOALS
RECOMMENDED ACTION :
Accept the staff report on the 1998-99 goal accomplishments and review the proposed goals for
1999-00.
ITEM EXPLANATION :
Last year, Council developed four strategic goal statements as a means to manage and implement
strategic values and vision statements important to the future success of Carlsbad. To that end,
the City Council continues to clarify and pursue the vision of Carlsbad that reflects the pride and
quality of life for all who live, work and play in our community.
With respect to Council’s Mission, Vision and Value Statements staff has worked diligently
throughout the year in an effort to achieve operational goals and departmental / program goals
which were created to fulfil1 the Council’s strategic goals. The success in attaining these goals
comes as a direct result of the development and execution of individual goals designed by
employees within the organization. Without exception, individual goals have in one way or another
maintained a direct line of sight back through the goal setting process towards the realization of the
Council’s vision for Carlsbad.
Council’s strategic goals relate to four specific areas and include 1) Top quality service;
2) Economic opportunity; 3) Transportation systems; and 4) Educational opportunities. These
areas were used as the impetus in developing Council’s four strategic goals which in turn created
thirteen operational goals and over forty departmental goals. As Council may recall from last years
update on 1998-99 goals, as a result of this goal setting process, management employees
throughout the organization became accountable for the accomplishment of well over three
hundred individual goals.
The staff presentation will describe 1998-99 goal accomplishments in greater detail, and the
following are just a few of the highlights that relate to those key achievements. They include:
Implementation of 800 MHz communication l
Household hazardous waste facility agreement l
Public works MSA reorganization 0

Each year, as Council appraises the continuum of the Carlsbad vision, the strategic goal
statements may require refinement based upon our previous years experience or changing
needs and impacts to the community. Accordingly, this year the goal statements pertaining to
economic opportunity, transportation systems and educational opportunities have been slightly
revised. However, the goal statement relating to top quality service has remained unchanged.
As amended, Council’s strategic goals for this year are as follows:
s Ensure the effective and efficient delivery of top quality services to our community
a Create diverse, broad-based economic strategies to ensure the financial health of the
community and the City.
j integrate a comprehensive efficient transportation system with quality of life centered land
use decisions
s Enhance educational opportunities and school facilities for all segments of the community.
These four strategic goals are defining statements that will drive the City workforce and direct
its activities throughout this fiscal year. Consequently, staff has developed a wide variety of
individual and team oriented goals that will implement projects in 1999-00 designed to:
l Improve customer service l Train and develop staff skills
l Provide top quality service delivery l Organizational planning and development
l Complete key Capital Improvements l Implement Maintenance Management System
l Enhance public health and safety l Streamline the City’s internal structures
l Strengthen use of technology l Measure performance
Council has previously received a compilation of all the individual and team goals established
by the management staff for this fiscal year. As part of a focused update on the proposed FY
1999-00 goals, staff will be highlighting those which are considered key towards achieving City
Council’s strategic goals.
FISCAL IMPACT:
City Council’s approval of the 1999-00 operating and CIP budgets have provided necessary
funds to pursue the goals outlined by staff. There is no additional fiscal impact related to this
report.
