Each goal of this strategic plan has several strategies that will help to achieve that particular goal. <br />Each strategy has a unique set of specific actions that, when implemented, will help make the <br />vision a reality. The strategies and actions are displayed in a matrix beginning on page 14. <br />The matrix of strategies and actions also includes information useful for implementation of each <br />action. There are columns that identify lead and partner organizations, the priority of the action, <br />and the level of resources needed for implementation. <br />.ANALYSTS OF AN ACTION ITEM: <br />Lead Organizations: The organizations responsible for implementation of the action. A list of all <br />the acronyms and the organizations they represent is included on page 31. <br />Partner Organizations: Organizations assisting with implementation. <br />Priority: All of the actions in this plan are important and contribute to achieving the vision. <br />However, each action has been given a priority based on feedback from the DAC, Ciry staff, <br />and the community to help guide implementation efforts. The priority is based not just on <br />importance, but also on cost, ease of implementation, and whether the action is already occurring. <br />There are five levels of priority: <br />(highest) <br />Resources: This column illustrates the amount of resources needed to implement each action item. <br />This plan considers both time and money as resources. The measures do not have specific values <br />but are relative estimates as compared to other actions within the plan and are represented as: <br />•®• (high) <br />•• (medium) <br />~ (low) <br />This allows Ciry staff and community organizations to quickly identify those action items that are <br />resource intensive and those that are not. Costing out each action item was outside the scope of ~~ <br />a, <br />this project for various reasons: <br />>` o <br />(1) the cost of specific infrastructure improvements will be itemized in the City's capital ~= <br />improvement plans (CIPs), not the Strategic Plan; and '' o <br />(2) some of the action items will be completed by community organizations and it is unclear <br />a <br />exactly how they will be implemented, thus an exact cost can not be assigned. `'; <br />'~ 13 <br />
