A strategic plan is a top level planning tool for an organization to establish clear policy direction over all operational aspects of its vision.
The Town's
2019-2023 Strategic Plan will serve as a framework for decision making over a five-year period. The plan will be the result of a disciplined effort to facilitate decisions that will shape what the Town intends to accomplish. The plan will incorporate an assessment of the present state of Town governance, the gathering of critical information, setting goals and finally making decisions for the future. The planning process ultimately seeks to strengthen and build upon opportunities while addressing areas of concern.
