Mission and Vision

Mission

“The Grand Traverse County Team is committed to providing responsive, effective, quality service to our community.”


Vision

“The Grand Traverse County Board of Commissioners envisions a community that preserves the beautiful and healthy environment making Grand Traverse County a desirable community in which to live. A community where the safety of its community is of utmost concern and who focuses on the well-being of all its people.”

“The Board of Commissioners envisions a county government that collaborates with other units of government on common issues for the benefit of the community and its individuals. A county that encourages risk taking and innovation to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of our services and to better serve our constituents. A county where all our customers have ready and easy access to all government services and that emphasizes fiscal responsibility in its planning for today and the future.”


The mission and vision statements impact my proposed technology solutions by working alongside one another because of want to provide responsive, effective services. By making changes to the website, providing clients the ability to schedule appointments online (out of business hours), and giving them the ability to apply for permits online will only make this organization more responsive and effective.
