The Strategic Plan is City Council’s direction to the organization for the benefit of the community. A new strategic planning process begins every four years, with the swearing in of a new City Council. City Council determines its strategic plan based on several factors including, but not limited to, things they heard from citizens on the campaign trail, information shared with City Council from administration, and information collective during the public participation process directly connected to the strategic plan.
The 2022-2026 Strategic Plan is expected to be completed in Fall 2022. The final version will be shared with the public at that time.
Vision 2040 is a long-term plan to identify a vision for Red Deer over the next 20 years and identify actions The City and community can take to realize a shared vision.
There are several ways to provide your input as part of Shape your Red Deer, including in-person workshops, online workshops and an online survey. Public Participation begins the week of April 24 and concludes on May 22.
