Vision

Preserving our high quality of life as we prosper into the future. We do this by ensuring:
  • A safe and healthy community. People feel safe and secure in our community, working together to prevent problems and to protect those in need.
  • A fiscally sound city. Living within our means and maintaining a responsible level of fiscal reserves means considering the long-term effects when weighing various options.
  • A well-planned city. An appropriate balance of land uses including housing, employment sites, shopping areas, parks and open space is essential for a vibrant community. By requiring development to pay its fair share, the community will experience the positive effects of growth.
  • Well-managed infrastructure. It is critical to ensure that City infrastructure—including roads, streetscapes, parks, utilities, facilities, and technology—is well maintained. Effectively planning infrastructure improvements includes anticipating future needs.
  • Outstanding recreational activities. Diverse recreation and cultural opportunities are widely accessible. Ample open space allows for outdoor parks, bike trails and interactions with nature.
  • A transparent, accountable environment. Information, services, and resources are readily available online and in person. Active engagement in dialogue promotes transparency and encourages a healthy exchange of ideas.
