Ms. Blunt explained these first planning meetings are not to include budget discussions
but rather to determine the direction for the County in the future and to set priorities. Ms.
Blunt distributed a handout and discussed the five items listed with Members, and asked
if they capture Maricopa County’s vision. Discussion ensued and several changes and
additions were requested. These suggested revisions were reprinted and brought back
to Members before the meeting ended, and are as shown below.
Maricopa County
FY 2015-2018 Draft Strategic Priorities
1. Safe Communities: by providing access to a timely, integrated and cost-effective
smart justice system
2. Regional Services: Provide best-in-class regional services, both mandated and
of concern to citizens, while coordinating with municipalities, other local
jurisdictions and community-based entities to consolidate services and avoid
duplication, when applicable.
3. Government Operations: Deploy an effective and efficient infrastructure to
implement streamlined policies and procedures improving delivery of services
and promoting a healthy workplace and a fully-engaged workforce.
4. Growth and Economic Development: Innovatively leverage its resources, be
nimble in its regulatory policies and practices, and proactive in its public relations
to attract, promote and support the growth of business enterprises to produce a
vibrant and balanced regional economy.
Staff was asked to assimilate the ideas presented on these topics for further discussion
at a future meeting.
