IMPLEMENTATION CAMPAIGNS

There are four Community COMPASS Implementation Campaigns which correspond to the four Core Goals—Assure Economic Prosperity, Build Collaborative Decision-Making, Embrace Diversity and Equity, and Balance Development and the Environment. These Core Goals emerged from extensive public involvement and debate through the Values Survey, Community Forums, and the Countywide Town Meeting. Each Campaign brings a different perspective to implementing Community COMPASS in that they focus on particular aspects of the county’s growth and development. However, at the same time all four Campaigns interrelate and support one another in that they draw from the same array of initiatives and strategies, and they ultimately achieve the same goals and vision for Hamilton County.

Each Implementation Campaign includes these elements:

Objectives are broad statements that provide detail to each Core Goal and describe a recognizable outcome. Objectives are stated in terms of output or results rather than processes, activities, solutions or means of achieving an end. Each Objective provides guidance for strategies.

Initiatives are clusters of interrelated strategies. Citizen involvement in Community COMPASS produced thirty different Initiatives. However, the summary of commitments and progress listed below for each Implementation Campaign is limited to 13 High Priority Initiatives as recommended by the COMPASS Steering Team.

Strategies are statements of how objectives will be accomplished and provide a clear commitment that will eliminate problems or obstacles to (or pursue opportunities for) achieving an objective. Progress achieved by Strategies can be measured.

Commitments and Progress by HCRPC, Planning Partnership, and Partners
reveal the many vital actions already underway in the quest to achieve the goals and objectives of Community COMPASS. However, this overall audit of commitments and progress also reveals the Priority Initiatives that are in need of action.

The underpinning philosophy behind Community COMPASS is active engagement across the public, private, and civic sectors in Hamilton County. Participation and endorsement by thousands of private citizens, business leaders, administrative and elected officials, and civic activists is the key to the success of this effort. Continuing this rich involvement will also be key to implementing the ideas contained in Community COMPASS. Successful implementation of the plan will rely on teams made up of various participants in the planning process. No individual organization or jurisdiction has the necessary resources or expertise to carry out all of the strategies contained in this plan.
