Nixa City Council have adopted the following as our Strategic Vision for 2020-2025.

Vision Statement:

"The City of Nixa will be a high-performance government creating a safe community, reliable infrastructure and sustainable economy with a vibrant atmosphere united by hometown spirit."

Values & Strategic Priorities:

• High Performance Government: We will continue to create effective, diverse, and innovative teams within the municipal organization which will use efficient processes to produce measurable and actionable results as we provide high-quality public services in a way that is clear, accountable and financially responsible, while engaging citizens and residents.
• Safe Community: We will promote an exceptional quality of life through partnerships and proactive measures to ensure Nixa is safe, healthy, and welcoming.
• Reliable Infrastructure: We will develop and maintain future-proof infrastructure designed to meet current needs and accommodate growth. We will provide safe, reliable and environmentally friendly services.
• Sustainable Economy: We will help our local businesses continue to thrive and expand, while developing an atmosphere of entrepreneurship. We will engage in partnerships to create an environment which fosters the job skills and workforce required to succeed in tomorrow’s economy. We will invest in our community to attract further private investment and economic development.
• Fun and Unique Places: We will cultivate vibrant, unique, and accessible spaces which attract and benefit residents, businesses and visitors. We will seek to add local flavor to new and existing spaces where people will want to spend time. Public spaces will offer fun and healthy recreational opportunities for all.
• Hometown Spirit: We will engage, inform, and partner with residents, non-profits, and businesses to foster a sense of unity and inclusion across our diverse and growing community to preserve a shared sense of small-town pride and interconnection. We will invite participation in events, programs and experiences that bring us together to enhance our quality of life.

What do you think we should do specifically to act on this vision?

The Strategic Vision set by Nixa City Council lays the groundwork for our 5-year strategic plan. Now we need to define the specific action steps we should take to fulfill this vision by 2025.

To figure out what action steps we should take, we are inviting everyone to participate in a 90-day community-wide brainstorm which we are calling "Imagine Nixa."

Your input will help determine how the vision becomes reality.
