BACKGROUND

The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) is updating its Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan is a policy level roadmap which defines the future desired state of the agency and lays out initiatives to move toward that desired state. The Strategic Plan is intended to be a living document that is adjusted to meet new needs or regulations faced by OC San.

There are currently 14 individual policy areas which comprise the overall Strategic Plan. The policy statements were developed by the Executive Management Team based on input provided by Board Members and staff. The Board's input and direction is critical in developing and updating the Strategic Plan.

In order to create a cohesive and comprehensive Strategic Plan, a new policy topic has been proposed that will focus on keeping our stakeholders informed and garnering support for the OC San services provided. The Board leadership has requested that this policy paper be developed in conjunction with the Legislative and Public Affairs Committee.

Based on the feedback received from the Steering Committee, staff intends to finalize the draft policy paper and include it in the draft Strategic Plan that will be presented to the Board of Directors in August with formal adoption by the Board in November of this year. The adopted Strategic Plan will be the basis of Fiscal Year 2022-23 and 2023-24 budget development.
