Post Falls working on strategic plan

POST FALLS - The city of Post Falls has begun a year-long strategic planning process to develop and implement strategies to guide the city's short- and long-term future.

The plan - intended for 2012 through 2017 - will involve public input through focus groups and online citizen surveys and establish priorities that will shape upcoming budgets.

It will be based on an assessment of the city's current financial and economic situation.

A workshop on the plan will be held before the City Council meeting at 5 p.m. on Dec. 20.

A steering committee of city employees, business owners, community leaders and education interests will be formed by the end of January.
