The Utility has a set <br /> of long-term goals developed in 2011 that were created for implementation over a ten-year time horizon. <br /> In addition, RPU develops three-year goals in order to meet the longer term goals. Executive and senior <br /> management participated in a strategic planning retreat on May 22, 2013. At that time, the five three- <br /> year goals were reviewed, a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis was <br /> performed, and new strategic objectives were developed. Follow-up sessions are held every six to eight <br /> months to ensure the goals are still appropriate and that objectives are updated so staff can meet these <br /> goals. <br /> In order to monitor RPU's efforts towards meeting these goals, an Eight-Month Strategic Objectives <br /> document is created as a detailed work plan to track efforts and accomplishments over the coming <br /> months to meet these goals. A summary of the efforts to meet the Eight-Month Strategic Objectives is <br /> provided to the Board on a monthly basis. <br /> The next retreat is scheduled for Wednesday, February 5, 2014, and members of the Board of Public <br /> Utilities are invited to attend. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT: <br /> There is no fiscal impact associated with this update. <br /> Approved by: David H.
