Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Board Priorities, Roles and Responsibilities and Development of a Long Term Strategic Plan for Mendocino County

(Sponsor: Supervisor Haschak)

Recommended Action/Motion:

recommendation

Discuss options and provide direction to staff to work with supervisors to focus on board priorities, roles, responsibilities, and develop a long-term strategic plan for Mendocino County.

End

 

Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

The Board of Supervisors' response to the 2019 Grand Jury report "Who Runs Mendocino County?" agreed with the finding that there is no single document titled "Strategic Plan for Mendocino County." In January of 2020, the BOS directed staff to gather the vision statements for each department. This effort was preempted by the Covid-19 crisis but initial indications were that the information gathered would be insufficient for a comprehensive look at the Board's priorities, roles, responsibilities and the development of a long-term strategic plan.                     

 

Summary of Request

Without a clear understanding and consensus as to how to best articulate and implement a long-term strategic plan for Mendocino County, the most effective and efficient use of limited County resources is not optimized. Clear pathways to carry out Board actions and accepted understanding of each Supervisor's role as well as the roles and duties of the Executive Office will enhance how the Board can implement its overall goals. This would help in the development of the budget, staffing requirements, direction, and purpose. A professional facilitator for the development of the long-term strategic plan and comprehensive look at the Board's priorities, roles, and responsibilities is requested.
