Strategic Planning & Reporting

The Town has created a strong strategic plan with clear objectives to communicate Council's vision and priorities for the municipality. 

It is always the Town's intent to show how it is moving forward, year-by-year, and the progress it is making towards those goals. 

Strategic Plan

The Strategic Plan 2023-2027 is the Town's overarching roadmap for the current Council's four-year term.  It sets out:

• Vision Statement: The Town's promise to residents and community partners
• Mission Statement: How the Town is working to deliver that promise.
• Values: The community's principles and beliefs that the organization's culture, decision-making and accountability.
• Strategic Pillars: Key priorities the Town is pursuing to realize its Mission and Vision.
• Strategic Directions:  Actions taken and resources used to advance the Town's key priorities.
• Strategic Levers: Key competencies, capabilities and assets the Town uses to achieve those priorities.

Business Plan & Budget 

The Business Plan & Budget 2024 is how the Town is using the calendar year to achieve those strategic pillars.  It also shows how the municipality is investing taxpayer's dollars for the benefit of its residents and the community at large.

The Business Plan shows the following priorities

• Major Initiatives: Significant projects that move the municipality forward.
• Division Highlights: Ways the Town's key business units are improving and enhancing services.
• Capital Highlights: Infrastructure projects, both traditional and virtual.

For the first time ever, the Town has also build a 10-year Asset Management and Capital Budgeting Plan to make sure it properly forecasts the lifecycle of its infrastructure assets, and has the funding in place to maintain, repair or replace those assets as needed.
