About the systems approach
Systems thinking is an approach that allows the city council to analyze and focus on how items and concepts are connected so they can establish desired outcomes that reflect the city’s strategic priorities. Making informed decisions requires an understanding of how a particular action is influenced or impacted by other parts within a system. The city council organizes their work into five systems, one system for each of the city’s strategic priorities. Learn more about the systems approach.
