She explained that the City is working on developing the <br />2019-2020 budget using a different method, called priority-based budgeting. With the new method funds will <br />be allocated based on City programs and services offered. Ms. Nivarro said it is a long and involved process that <br />will take several years to implement fully. The next step in the process is to score the programs and services <br />against a set of strategic goals. <br /> <br />The City is revisiting the Strategic Plan goals from 2012, which has five strategic goals. The City wants to ensure <br />the Strategic Plan still reflects the priority and the value of the community. The City currently has a survey <br />available on-line and in printable form for those interested in providing their feedback on the goals. After the <br />feedback is received from the community and employees, information will be compiled, and any recommended <br />adjustments to the Strategic Plan will go through the City Council approval process. The 2019-2020 budget will <br />be developed based on the amended goals. Also, there will be more community outreach between now and <br />November 2018 when the budget is finalized. <br /> <br />Vice Chair, Dennis Martinez, opened the public hearing and swore in those wishing to testify. <br /> <br />CASE NUMBER: L18-0032 (Code Amendment) <br />APPLICANT: Segale Properties LLC <br /> <br /> <br />
