City of Gaithersburg 2009 Strategic Plan
Posted 3/18/2009

Gaithersburg is a City with vision.  The following document is our Year 2009 Strategic Plan. Strategic Planning is a way for us to focus our resources on improving the City’s livability in specific areas that will most help us achieve Gaithersburg’s vision.

On an annual basis, the City refines its Vision, Mission Statement, Guiding Principles, and Strategic Directions.  Our strategic planning and budgeting process are linked to assure that the City’s budget reflects the City’s strategic priorities.  We believe Gaithersburg is a great place to live, work, learn and play, and we want to continue to improve Gaithersburg’s livability in these areas.

Gaithersburg cannot be a great City without the involvement of its residents and businesses.  It is through partnerships that we can accomplish the most and build the community we all truly want.  Gaithersburg is lucky to have many involved residents, businesses, and nonprofit groups that really care about the City and want to make it a better place.  Gaithersburg is a City where CHARACTER COUNTS!

We hope you find the Strategic Plan very informative.  If you would like to get involved or if you have any questions or suggestions regarding our strategic plan, please contact 301-258-6310 or cityhall@gaithersburgmd.gov.
