APPLYING OUR VISION AND PRINCIPLES

Following city council adoption of a finalized Vision
Report in December, the city will immediately
incorporate the vision and guiding principles into its
strategic planning and routine operations to ensure
values-based and priorities-driven decision-making. ANCHORED ENGAGED
Just as Envision Littleton has involved an initial
filtering effort to evaluate an array of inputs, the
City of Littleton will apply the resulting new vision
and principles when weighing various choices.
Examples include budgeting, capital project priorities,
department programs and staffing, grant pursuits,
new or expanded partnerships, and zoning and land
development proposals, among others. AUTHENTIC ACTIVE

CHECK OUR WORK ENGAGEMENT

During the “Check Our Work” stage, Posts on Open House Displays Presentations Littleton
Envision staff solicited input on Facebook, at Events Report Articles
the draft Envision Report both at Twitter, 6
in-person events and online. From and Next Door 7 2
October 6 to November 2, 2018, an 5
estimated 2,500 people engaged
with Envision staff at community Listening Sessions Interviews
events. In addition to providing 5 4
feedback on the draft Envision
Report, participants were reminded
that planning for the future will not
be easy and were asked what they
believe is the most important way
to treat each other. There was a
fairly even response among the
options, which included Listen, Be
Neighborly, Empathize, Be Open
Minded, and Be Compassionate.

WE ARE STILL LISTENING

Going forward, the city will continue to listen, learn, and adapt so that the desired future we are all seeking for Littleton will
remain in focus. Effective communities evaluate their choices and revisit their vision and principles regularly. They must
remain on target, be clearly understood, and encompass the range of likely issues that will arise. All who have contributed
so far to Envision Littleton must remain stewards of the vision our community has put forward. This will ensure that Littleton
is among the places where visions and values endure across decades and generations.
