SRPMIC General Plan - Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community

Sustainable SRPMIC . . . Planning for Generations
• Goal: The ultimate purpose of an effort stated in a way that is general in
nature and immeasurable. Goals are numbered with two-digit labels.
The first digit corresponds with the element (e.g., Land Use is the first
element, so all goals begin with 1.) and the second digit indicates the
sequence within each element. Thus, the first goal in the Land Use
Element is labeled 1.1.
• Policy: A specific statement in text or diagram guiding action and
implying clear commitment. Policies are nested under each goal and
assigned corresponding three digit labels that correspond with their goal
and the sequence of policies under that goal. Thus, the first policy under
goal 4.1 would be 4.1.1.
• Implementation Measure: An action, procedure, program, or technique
that carries out General Plan policy. Implementation Measures are
presented under the goals with which they are most closely associated,
but they are numbered sequentially throughout the entire document,
with a label that begins with IM. Thus, the 25 th implementation measure
in the Plan is labeled IM 25.
