3 About this Report The purpose of this report is to update Council on the status of those initiatives that are key to achievement of the strategic goals and objectives set out in the Corporate Strategic Plan, The Way Forward. The content of the report will change from quarter to quarter as new initiatives are started and others completed. This report is not meant to be a complete description of the work performed by City staff during the quarter. Staff are also engaged in delivering core services and participating in other significant initiatives. The Corporate Strategic Plan sets out a Four Point Plan to improve performance and results in four strategic areas: Our City Government focuses on Council decision making and the organization s performance. Our Community concentrates on issues of livability and social well-being for citizens. Our Economy focuses on what is needed to encourage economic growth and vitality. Our Environment targets our ability to protect and sustain the environment and reduce our ecological impact. Alignment with these four strategic areas is highlighted throughout this document. This report has three sections: Initiatives and at a Glance is a one page snapshot of the current status of key initiatives. The status reflects whether any changes in objectives, scope, resources or timelines have occurred since Council was last updated on the project. Initiative Summaries comprise the bulk of the report. These are one page summaries of each initiative, highlighting its contribution to the Corporate Strategic Plan, the objectives of the project, and project phases and timeline. An explanation of each project s status can also be found in this section. Other Accomplishments this Quarter recognizes notable accomplishments from the quarter that may not be associated with a key initiative, but demonstrate significant progress in reaching the goals and objectives outlined in the Corporate Strategic Plan. Our Service Principles emphasize our commitment to accountability. We are: Open and Accountable: We listen, continually measure our performance and communicate the results. This document is one means for staff to demonstrate our commitment to accountability, sustainability, and willingness to take responsibility for our actions. As noted in the Corporate Strategic Plan, this shared commitment is at the centre of the relationship between Council, staff and the public and enables us to work together to make the vision outlined in that Plan a reality. January to March 2011 Quarterly Progress Report Page 2
4 A. Executive Summary This document is the first of a planned series of quarterly reports from the City Manager to Council on the progress of corporate strategic initiatives. Reports will be presented to Council during the month following the end of each quarter (i.e., in April, July, October and January). Nineteen key initiatives are highlighted in this report. As a reflection of the influence that our organization s performance has on all other strategic areas, seven of these are projects under Our City Government. Four initiatives are in the planning stage, which means that a Project Charter has not yet been approved by Council, although work to develop these documents is underway. Of the remaining 15 initiatives, the majority are proceeding as planned. Four initiatives have been assigned a yellow status because of minor timeline shifts since Council was last updated on the project. These four projects are: Update Official Community Plan and Renew Local Area Planning Program Manage Travellers Inn Project Develop Garden Suites Policy, and Create Economic Development Strategy. One project has been assigned a red status. Implement Victoria Sustainability Framework has experienced a major timeline shift, with a new estimated completion date of June Reasons for the shift include competing departmental project priorities and limited availability of staff resources from supporting departments. A number of other notable accomplishments occurred during the quarter. Corporately, the most significant was the launch of the Corporate Strategic Plan (CSP), which provides the basis for this document and all other City planning initiatives. Victoria also received a number of awards. Several significant policy initiatives were completed and approved by Council, including the Needle Exchange Harm Reduction Policy and the Green Building Policy for Private Development. Staff also successfully concluded a number of major agreements. January to March 2011 Quarterly Progress Report Page 3
