ATTACHMENT 10Vision StatementsWhat are they, what should they include and how to create them.City of Kirkland Planning DepartmentJanuary 2010We hope the following tools will be useful for citizens developing or revising a vision statementas part of a neighborhood plan update process. Below is a brief overview of things to considerin developing a vision statement, examples of vision statements from other cities, Kirkland’scitywide vision statement and examples of Kirkland’s neighborhood vision statements.What is a vision statement?According to the International City/County Management Association the term community visionstatement implies…,,,”seeking agreement about the desired outcome of the plan and visualizing and articulatingthe kind of community residents want in the future, which might be defined as five or ten oreven twenty years hence”.An effective vision statement will tell the world what change you wish to create for the futureof your community. For example…..Our vision is a community where___________ or; Ourvision is a community that______________.Kirkland has revisited its community wide vision statement on at least two occasions. In 1992in response to the passing of the state Growth Management Act the city initiated a communityvisioning process for the major update of the Comprehensive Plan known as Charting a FutureCourse. Most recently in 2002, the city conducted the Community Conversations- Kirkland2022 public involvement process (Information on both processes is available from the PlanningDepartment). As each neighborhood plan is updated in the Comprehensive Plan residents,property owners and business owners have an opportunity to revise or create new visionstatements unique to their neighborhood.What should a vision statement include, how is it used and how do you know it issuccessful?Developing a vision statement should be done in the beginning of the neighborhood planningprocess before drafting the specific goals and policies in order to reflect the neighborhood’svalues and priorities for the remainder of the planning process.Sharing in problem solving and planning for the future is an empowering experience thatraises the community's collective self-esteem and pride in their community. When aneighborhood assesses the existing conditions, the uniqueness of their area, the things theylike or want to change about their area, they become invested; the community vision thatemerges is theirs and they become stakeholders in their community or neighborhood's future.1 | Page45
