Naperville Needs You. Help Shape the Possibilities.
illi News/10122062

Beginning this month, the Naperville community is asked to help shape what's next for the City. A collaborative process will update Naperville's Strategic Plan to maintain the City's resiliency while preparing for opportunities and challenges. The three-year plan will provide strategic focus for the City's programs, services and initiatives based on community priorities.

"Strategic planning is a best practice in local government and so important to focusing the efforts of elected officials and staff," said Mayor Steve Chirico. "As we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic and face a changing future, having a strategic plan in place will help us to direct resources where they are needed most. A meaningful strategic plan will reflect the views of our community, making broad participation critical in the process. We urge everyone to participate."

The strategic planning process encourages the community to share its top priorities for the City, which is critical for allocating financial resources and personnel to areas residents and businesses consider most important. Community members are asked to provide strategic plan input virtually for the safety of all. Participating in a short, online survey is the first opportunity.
