Commissioners highlight the Washoe County Strategic Plan

Washoe County unveils Strategic Plan, mission, values, and direction for next three years.

Reno, Nevada. July 15, 2015. At the July 14, 2015 Board of County Commissioners meeting, the Board highlighted Washoe County's Strategic Plan, mission, values, and direction for the next three years. The County Commissioners' strategic priorities for 2016-2018 are:

• Proactive economic development and diversification
• Safe, secure and healthy communities
• Stewardship of our community
• Regional and community leadership
• Valued and engaged workforce

In January 2015, the County Commissioners held a strategic planning workshop to define their vision and future for Washoe County. From that initial workshop, Washoe County department leaders then gathered to identify and discuss initiatives to help support the County Commission’s mission, direction, values and goals. In April, the Board approved the 2016-2018 Strategic Plan. The Board will be updated on the progress of the FY 16 goals on a quarterly basis. 

“Washoe County will be the social, economic and policy leadership force that citizens of Northern Nevada will look to and be proud of,” said Washoe County Commission Chair Marsha Berkbigler. “We are here to hear from people of all walks of life and work hard to make our community a great place to live, and this Board will make sure that happens.”
