City Council Goals
City Council goals are an important part of guiding the direction and decisions made by the local government. These goals help set priorities and focus on what the community needs and wants. By establishing clear goals, the City Council can work towards improving various aspects of the city, such as public safety, infrastructure, economic development, and community services. By working towards these goals, the City Council aims to make positive changes and improvements that benefit everyone who lives in the city. Having well-defined goals also helps hold the City Council accountable and allows residents to see the progress being made towards achieving those goals.
