Council Strategic Plan
What Council has committed to focus on between 2023 and 2027: housing, healthcare access, airport growth, recreation, and the civic infrastructure underneath all of it. Reviewed every year, available below.
Council Strategic Plan (2023 to 2027)
The Council Strategic Plan covers the current Council term, 2023 to 2027. It’s a living document, reviewed annually so priorities stay aligned with what the community actually needs.
At a glance, the plan’s priority areas are:
- Governance and service excellence (how the City operates, transparency, accountability)
- Housing (supply, affordability, density)
- Healthcare access (advocacy for regional health services)
- Quality of life (parks, culture, recreation)
- Airport growth (West Highlands Regional Airport YSV)
- Economic development (business support, downtown revitalization)
- Sustainable civic infrastructure (roads, water, sewer, climate adaptation)
The PDF below carries the exact wording of each principle and goal, plus the strategic actions assigned to each.

Quarterly Implementation Reports
Council receives quarterly implementation reports that track progress against the Strategic Plan’s priorities, action by action. They’re published with the agenda of the Council meeting at which they’re received, and stay in the public meeting archive afterwards. The fastest way to find one is to browse Council meetings for the relevant quarter.
How to weigh in
The Strategic Plan is a living document and Council welcomes input on priorities and progress. If you have a specific concern or proposal tied to one of the priority areas, you can request a 15-minute delegation at a Regular Council Meeting, or email Council members directly through the Mayor & Council page.
