This plan <br />has provided staff with a roadmap for delivering quality programs and services over the past <br />five years. During this time, the department completed 65% of the strategic plan’s <br />implementation action plan items and 22% of these items are in progress. <br /> <br />Library and Recreation staff are developing a new five-year strategic plan and are seeking <br />commission feedback on its mission, vision, values, and goals.
