Austin is a city that becomes increasingly efficient in solving real problems for real people by:
1. engaging stakeholders and users, 2. leading collaboratively, 3. working across disciplines, departments, and city systems; and 4. using data and integrated technologies
to transform services and improve quality of life with and for all Austinites, businesses, and visitors.
