Citygate first completed an operational review of the Finance Department and then worked with the City of Folsom’s City Manager and Finance Director to link and integrate the City’s Strategic Plan with the formulation of the operating budget. This project included working with Folsom’s line departments to identify their respective roles in the achievement of the City’s Strategic Plan; presenting those roles, projects, and goals in departmental budgets; and identifying performance indicators to measure accomplishment of each component of the Strategic Plan. The project also included developing and presenting training materials to the departments in how to implement this approach within the annual budget formulation process.
