Page 98 - Littleton, CO Comprehensive Plan

88

• The list of priority actions must be reviewed and major accomplishments highlighted. Those not completed by the
specified timeframe should be re-evaluated to ensure their continued relevance and/or to revise them appropriately.

• Lessons learned by the City in the case of mistakes, missed opportunities, or other barriers to achieving goals should be
discussed.

• As conditions change, the timeframes for implementing major actions in the Plan should be re-evaluated where
necessary. Some actions may emerge as a higher priority given new or changed circumstances while others may
become less important to achieving the goals and development objectives of the community.

• Based upon organizational and procedural factors, and the status of assigned tasks, the implementation of task
assignments must be reviewed and altered, as needed, to ensure timely accomplishment of the Plan’s action strategies.

• Changes in laws, procedures and missions may affect the community’s ability to achieve its goals. The Plan review
must assess these changes and their impacts on the success of implementation, leading to any suggested revisions in
strategies or priorities.

Ongoing Community Outreach and Engagement

All review processes and updates related to the Plan should emphasize and incorporate ongoing public input. The annual
and continual plan evaluation and reporting processes should also incorporate specific performance measures and
quantitative indicators that can be compiled and communicated both internally and to elected officials and residents in a
“report card” fashion.
Examples might include:
• Acres of new development and redevelopment (plus number of residential units by type and square footage of
nonresidential space) approved and constructed in conformance with the Plan and Littleton’s development regulations.
• Measures of service capacity added to the City’s utility infrastructure systems – and the number of dollars allocated to
fund the capital projects.

• New and expanded businesses, added jobs, and associated tax revenue gains through economic development
initiatives.

• Lane miles of new or rehabilitated road, plus bike, pedestrian, transit, and other improvements added to Littleton’s
transportation system that increase mobility options.

• Dollar value of park and recreation improvement projects, and miles of trail developed or improved.
• Quantitative measures of historic preservation activity (e.g., landmarked structures, properties within historic districts,
etc.).

• Indicators of the benefits from redeveloped sites and structures (appraised value, increased property and/or sales tax
revenue, new residential units, retail and office spaces in mixed-use settings, etc.).

• The numbers of residents and other stakeholders engaged through City-sponsored education and outreach events
related to Envision Littleton implementation and periodic review and updating, as outlined in this section.
