Mission-Led Comprehensive Plan
The intent of this Mission-Led Comprehensive Plan is to align everything Metro Parks Tacoma (MPT) does, from traditional parks and recreation programs, facilities and services, to zoos and marinas, historic forts and pagodas, wildlife and nature centers, and conservatories and major festivals, etc., with how they contribute to three Mission-Led Program Areas. Regardless of the number of departments, differing accreditation requirements and agencies, competing and conflicting interests, MPT is aligning around these three areas.In addition, general priorities for budgeting capital projects, allocations of operations and maintenance funds, program and demand-driven use of facilities and spaces, re-purposing, and annual business plans should be driven by this Mission-Led Comprehensive Plan in accordance with the 2006 Strategic Parks and Programs Services Plan (SPPSP). This plan also provides guidance for how in depth services are to be provided in each area. Regardless of the organizational structure, the District's vision and the Executive Cabinet's implementation priorities are intended to be grounded in both un-met demand and reaching a desired minimum level of service score for each of the Mission Led Program Areas. This will be achieved specifically through annual business planning and bi-annual budget allocations, realizing the constraints of available physical resources, tax-payer investment, market demand and position, alternative providers in the same market space, and collaborative opportunities.
