The Strategic Plan was developed to provide a single, comprehensive set of policy-level goals and objectives which support RVSD’s strategic priorities. The Strategic Plan is used to guide allocation of financial and other resources, inform annual staff level work plans and annual budgets. The RVSD Strategic Plan also presents RVSD’s Mission Statement and its Core Values, which the Strategic Plan and annual Business Plans reflect and support. Each year, the Board adopts updated Business Plan objectives that implement policy-level goals and effective utility management (EUM) attributes of the Strategic Plan.
