Utilities Manager Recommendation
The Utilities Manager and staff recommend approval of the Mission, Vision and Values statements and the FY2027 Strategic Goals and Objectives as presented in Attachment A.
Body
The Utilities Manager is expected to annually develop strategic goals and objectives, and present them to the Board for approval. At the regular BPU meeting on August 20, 2025 and the work session on September 3, 2025, the Board was asked to provide input on the department's Mission, Vision and Values statements and update the Department’s strategic goals and objectives. This annual effort ensures alignment of focus areas, strategic goals and objectives while considering County Council’s priorities in their 2025 Strategic Leadership Plan. The Board's direction and input will be used for the Department’s action planning and budget preparations for FY2027.
The clean version in Attachment A reflects the changes made on September 3, 2025.
