Background
In 2017 the City of Monticello engaged in a strategic planning process to envision the future of Monticello and prioritize projects to accomplish that vision. The plan was primarily developed during two spring workshops with city council members and city department heads. The final document was approved by City Council in May 2017 and contains a new mission statement for the city, six goals, and a variety of objectives.
The Strategic Plan is a living document that will evolve as opportunities and resources change over time. However, it provides a positive focus for our energy and a unified sense of purpose as we work toward the future we envision for our city.
