PURPOSE: To discuss and consider adoption of the Board's goals for FY 2000-01.
BACKGROUND: Each year, the Board of Commissioners holds an annual planning and goal
setting retreat that provides a forum for Commissioners to discuss their policy priorities for the
next fiscal year. The Board did not identify any new potential goals at their January 2000
retreat. Earlier this spring, staff accordingly developed proposed updates to the detailed action
steps and timetables for the 1999-00 goals that would continue through the new fiscal year.
These draft goals were distributed to the Board in early June.
Discussion and adoption of the 2000-2001 BOCC goals was included on the June 29, 2000
agenda, but was not completed due to the press of other time-sensitive matters. The Board
may wish to discuss and adopt the proposed goals now, and/or to identify any goals about
which additional information is needed or to which changes may be required. These would be
brought back for additional BOCC discussion and subsequent adoption later this year.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Th.e Board's approval of 2000-01 goals will generally involve the use of
existing staff and financial resources. In some cases, additional resources (for example,
reserves for affordable housing initiatives and implementation of recommendations from the
Master Aging Plan task farces) will be necessary. These have been included in the 2000-01
budget.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the 2000-2001
goals, and if necessary, to identify questions about or changes to other goals which will need to
be brought back for further BOCC discussion.
