I II IAppendix A

Process to Develop the Vision Statement (December 18, 2014 SPPC meeting)

At the request of the Strategic Priorities and Policy Committee (SPPC), staff proposed 7 draft

2. A vibrant, innovative, connected city: locally and globally

3. London: prosperous, innovative, connected, and exceptional.

4. London: connected, thriving, leading.

5. London: confident, caring, connected.

6. London: where you want to be.

7. London — driven by talent, committed to innovation.

• In small groups, SPPC reviewed each statement, public feedback and their own feedback andprovided input on the above proposed statements:

o How do we incorporate connected — graphically?

o (We are) strongly rooted, diversely connected, dynamically growing.

o (We are) driven by talent (community), committed to innovation, (rooted incommunity).

o London, a community driven by innovation.

o Connected. Innovative. Dynamic.

o Inspired/Driven. Innovative. Diverse. Connected.

o Thriving. Leading. Connected.

• Willingness for innovation

• Best practices

• Partnerships

• Collaboration (partners, residents, citizens, each other)

• Plain language

• Strategic areas of focus — and the sub areas — need this detail and clarity

• Use the 4 vision words as a filter when looking at strategies

• Role of region

• Quality of life as a lens
