Working DRAFT City Council Goats
Please turn in ANY goal additions to Kimberly no later than FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 14.
Draft Goals will be discussed at the November 24 COW and passed at the
December 1 Regular meeting.
Only a few Councilmembers submitted ideas and input for this first round of possible goals to
incorporate into the Mayor's 2009 -10 Proposed Budget.
Please submit your suggestions as soon as possible.
As we work through this process, it is important to remember that the Council goals should be:
An objective or desired outcome that is achievable by the Council.
We must have the attributes, energy and time to accomplish a goal (short and long term).
The actions we take as we try to accomplish our goals play a huge role in whether we reach
our goals or not.
Goals should be clearly defined, as well as flexible.
Consider how the goal can be attained through specific actions and examples.
Last Year's Goals (2008)
1. Seek out opportunities for Councilmembers to further their knowledge, experience and
awareness of the different cultures represented within the Tukwila community.
2. Support programs and services that provide a sense of stability, community and unity
throughout Tukwila's residential neighborhoods.
3. Work together in cooperation with nearby cities to address common problems in the Highway
99 corridor and Military Road.
4. Provide legislative support and encouragement to Tukwila residents living in rental
communities through programs that hold owners and /or property managers accountable for
providing safe places to live through the implementation of a rental licensing program.
5. Approve a developer's agreement that benefits the City and facilitates the annexation of
Tukwila South.
6. Support efforts to locate a permanent Neighborhood Resource Center in a visible location on
the Tukwila Village site.
