2021 Q2 Work Plan Update
Body
Summary and Background Information:
This presentation to Council is to provide an update on Staff’s progress on the 2021 work plan during Q2. Staff has made significant progress across all five of Council’s goals this quarter, and will be presenting updates to Council during this meeting. Staff prepares an annual work plan to track and manage projects and priorities for the year. Having a work plan ensures that all work accomplished by staff in a given year furthers the goals set by Council. This is the first year staff is using the more streamlined three-tiered work plan. Therefore, in addition to Council’s feedback on the progress made, feedback on the report itself is important. Improvements as to how this information is presented in the future will allow staff to more effectively and efficiently communicate progress to Council. Staff can make adjustments to the level of detail or nature of updates, as well as adding, removing, and adjusting objectives as needed throughout the year based on Council’s direction.

The Envisio report and slides accompanying this communication will provide additional detail on the progress during this quarter. Overall, staff has made 44% progress on the work plan, with 88.64% of projects on track, 4.55% already completed, and 6.82% experiencing some amount of disruption.
