VISION AN D M ISSION

SERVING AS OUR NORTH STAR

T he city?s mission statement was established in 1999 and has guided the city through times of
economic growth and recession. While the mission statement is reviewed annually, it has rarely

been changed. Well-crafted mission statements do not need to be changed each year. However, after

nearly 20 years, it was necessary to review the mission statement and ensure it aligns with the overall

strategy for the city. In 2017, the city's current mission statement was developed.

The city council also created the city?s first vision statement in 2017. The city?s vision statement

complements our mission statement but is unique as it illustrates what we strive to become and how we
see our community now and in the future. The mission statement outlines what will be done to ensure

the city progresses towards its vision. Following the development of a vision statement and an updated

mission statement in 2017, council reaffirmed both statements for the FY 2020 Strategic Plan.

Our Strategic Plan provides a set of parameters to assist

staff and council in making decisions that keep Hurst moving

forward.
