Strategic Plan (2025-2030)

The Board of Lucas County Commissioners have adopted a strategic plan that will guide future decision-making with a unified vision to provide high-quality services to Lucas County residents.

The 2025-2030 Strategic Plan is the first-ever conducted by the Board and was spearheaded by Commissioner Lisa A. Sobecki.

It was completed with the help of consulting firm Experience Management Institute and incorporated interviews and written feedback from residents, elected officials, Lucas County employees, businesses, unions, community partners, and other stakeholders across the county.

The plan features: 

  • Operational goals: Goals that outline day-to-day work that will help improve the operations of the Board over the next five years.
  • Advocacy Areas: The Board’s stance on critical issues requiring action beyond internal operations, often at local, state, or national levels to drive systemic change aligned with community values.
  • Mission, vision, and values statements

To compile information for the plan, the Board received 248 staff survey responses, 434 community survey responses, held 52 individual interviews with community leaders, led five department staff advisory meetings, and conducted 16 stakeholder focus groups. 

The strategic plan addresses modern challenges County departments face and will help the Board achieve efficiency with a shared mission and vision for how Lucas County government should operate.
