STRATEGIC PLANNING AS AN IMPLEMENTATION TOOL: MADERIA, OHIO AS A CASE STUDY

MALLOW, PETER JAY

Abstract Details

2001, MCP, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning : Community Planning.
This project seeks to provide the council members and administration of Madeira, Ohio with a framework for developing a strategic plan in their community. Many of the stakeholders in Madeira have participated in this project identifying major internal and external issues that affect the community. A previous study conducted by Steve Sievers, Madeira Tomorrow Survey, was consulted for citizen input. The issues identified from the Madeira Tomorrow Survey and the stakeholders led to the development of three broad goals: Maintain the high quality of residential, Enhance revenues to replace those lost from the State of Ohio, and Maintain the high quality of services provided to residents. Before developing a strategic plan for Madeira, this project examines the applicability of the strategic planning for local units of governments. A review of three local governments' strategic plans was conducted to determine lessons that can be learned from their strategic planning processes. It was determined that many local governments do not actually complete the entire strategic planning process; thus, making it difficult for them to follow through with their efforts in a three to five year plan. Having determined that strategic planning is both applicable and effective for local governments, a strategic plan was developed for Madeira. The plan provides the council members and administration of Madeira with a proposed mission statement, goals and objectives, and suggestions on how to effectively implement this strategic plan or a revised strategic plan in Madeira, Ohio.
