Info

Implementation is the process of putting a plan into action. Planning policies are expanded in scope and specific actions are detailed for accomplishing Plan goals. Implementation efforts include specific projects referenced in the Plan and undertaken within a specified time frame upon completion and approval of the Plan. These efforts are outlined in the next section. Other implementation efforts are accomplished as part of on-going planning programs and are outlined in a following section. Figure 1 on the facing page indicates lead agencies, planning projects, and schedule for implementing the Plan. Plan Implementation Projects This outline of implementation projects and of related planning policies is not intended to be an exclusive listing. As planning efforts move from the Plan Update to specific implementation actions, other implementation projects may be identified. Similarly, as specific projects are started, other Plan policies not listed below may be included as relevant. Budgetary requirements/implications are shown for projects which would require additional expenditures within the City’s budget over and above current levels. These budget figures are preliminary estimates only. Budgetary requirements are not shown when the project would be an extension of a department’s ongoing functions, although this may require some shift among current work tasks. Nor are specific requirements shown for projects which specifically call for identifying new sources of revenue. It is assumed that there would be no impact on existing budgets, since the new revenues would cover program costs.
