City of Beloit Kicks Off Strategic Planning Process

The City of Beloit is kicking off its strategic planning process with a community survey and focus groups. Insights gained from Beloit residents, businesses, and non-profit organizations will be essential as the City Council develops goals for the next three-to-five years.

The City of Beloit Strategic Plan guides the direction for the City of Beloit organization. The Beloit City Council adopts the strategic plan, which helps set staff and budgetary priorities.

The City of Beloit is partnering with CP2 Consulting, Inc. to develop the plan over the next few months.
