From City of Missoula's Strategic Plan, 2004-2008:
Our Mission
Administration:
Our mission is to facilitate the health, safety and well being of
the Missoula community.
Goal:
As a community, we promote a safe, healthy, economically and
environmentally sustainable Missoula.
Guiding Principles
- We believe that growth and development must be environmentally
and economically sustainable. We take responsibility for anticipating,
planning for, and actively guiding change.
- We believe that neighborhoods play an important role in assuring
a livable, sustainable and affordable community.
- We believe that a well-planned and well-organized infrastructure
is essential to building, enhancing, and preserving community
and the environment.
- We believe that access to public health, safety, and services
and recreation opportunities are essential to a livable, sustainable
community.
- We believe a good relationship with citizens leads to support
of government and the opportunity to accomplish livability objectives.
Narrative
In the next three to five years, the City will concentrate on specific
elements that will strengthen that fabric and improve the sense
of livability for all citizens in Missoula.
Citizens expect, and the City will respond to the critical need,
to maintain air quality, improve water quality, and preserve and
enhance large and small open spaces. Increased availability,
convenience and accessibility for all modes of transportation will
contribute to functional traffic management. Access to health
and human services and recreation opportunities for all citizens
continue to be important emphasis areas for the City.
