While it is important to balance the vision of community with available resources, the resources available should not inhibit the vision. • The organizations objectives for a strategic plan will help determine how the resources available can be tied to the future goals. 19 Reassess the Strategic Plan 10 2/15/2019 Stratv rPlanning Next Steps • Long Term Vision (St. Lucie 2040) • Utilization of a facilitator • Board Involvement • Partner Involvement— Municipalities, Constitutional Officers, TPO, Non -profits, etc. • Citizen Involvement — citizen's surveys, focus groups • Plan adoption target of February 2020 STRATEGIC PRIORITIES FOR FY 19-20 CITIZENS' BUDGET COMMITTEE FEBRUARY 15, 2019 21 22 11 Daniel P.
