The City of El Paso is a reflective and future-focused organization. The Strategic Plan sets the tone and direction of our service delivery by establishing goals, strategies and key strategic objectives while also aligning operations and resources to achieve them. Activating the power of the plan has shaped transformative, tangible results since its initial adoption in 2015.

City Leaders convened the most recent Strategic Planning Session in December 2021. This high-energy, community-focused event centered on reinforcing the collective big picture---driven by the data, dialogue, and key decisions shaping our future.
