In February 2023, the City Manager's office hosted a City Council Strategic Goal Setting Retreat, which saw active participation from council members, city staff, and residents.

This collaborative workshop aimed to establish clear intentions for our organization focused on efficiently allocating time and resources in alignment with our identified objectives.

Afterward, the city council adopted six top priorities, now serving as our fiscal year 2023/2024 guiding goals.

We are committed to providing quarterly progress updates to ensure transparency and accountability, reaffirming our dedication to reaching the objectives identified to move Fairfield forward.

City of Fairfield 2023-2025 City Council Goals

An overview of City Council goals and priorities designed to guide City government operations within the two-year fiscal cycle.

The City of Fairfield’s Council Goals and Priorities Plan is a formal document adopted by the City Council that translates vision and goals into an accountable strategy that guides the organization’s focus, work, and resource alignment.

City Council Goals and Priorities

The council goals and priorities are distributed across 22 objectives, facilitating the translation of strategic priorities into operational and performance-based goals that are clear, focused, and measurable.

This is not a linear map in which each strategic priority is performed in sequence. Rather, each area is equally important and conducted simultaneously.

Implementation

The timeline for implementation will vary based on many factors, including the complexity of the objective, partner and community input, workforce capacity, budget availability, and coordination with City partners. Regular reviews of the implementation plans will ascertain their effectiveness in achieving the milestones outlined in the objectives and strategies.

The City's Council Goals Performance Dashboard will be designed to:

• Share the progress toward realizing the City Council’s goals with the Community.
• Assist City management and Council in making data-driven decisions on key priority areas.
• Enhance government accountability and transparency.
