February 2002 Annual Report 2000-2001 South Plains College – 2 Introduction South Plains College has made a significant commitment to accountability and quality with the adop- tion of a comprehensive institutional effectiveness program. This planning and assessment process is based on successful accomplishments of the college’s vision and mission within the context of an institutional plan and as measured by student outcomes. To ensure effectiveness, South Plains College has embraced a process of continuous organizational improvement designed to improve the way the work of the institution is done and to accomplish the goals and objectives of the institution. The college has established a four-year strategic planning cycle that sets institutional goals based on a review of the college’s vision, mission, role and scope, and value statements. Each goal is reached through a set of priority initiatives and resulting annual objectives. A companion assessment process measures the extent to which institutional goals and objectives are accomplished. The college has identified these measures as critical success factors and indicators of effectiveness which map the progress made toward goal accomplishment. The college uses this process to monitor its plan and make necessary adjustments in programs and services. A yearly update on the institutional effectiveness program is presented to the South Plains College Board of Regents. The document used to convey these annual results is the Annual Report of Progress and Achievement. Table of Contents I.

  • Growth Capacity and Management (Adopted 05.14.13) 2.1
    Chapter 2, Growth Capacity and Management (Adopted 05.14.13) 2.1 Adopted 2.0 05.14.13 Growth Capacity PLANNING FOR GROWTH The City of Plainview has the opportunity to utilize a number of strategies, tools and techniques for influencing and managing the pattern and timing of development within the City limits and extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). While there is no single approach that meets all needs, a combination of planning, regulatory, and financing mechanisms is oftentimes used to influence what is constructed. Given the limitations that state law places on Texas cities and especially counties, there are few, if any, mechanisms currently available to entirely prevent haphazard growth patterns, particularly within the City’s ETJ. With that being said, Plainview’s population growth is projected to be modest. This is outlined in Table 2.1: Plainview Population Trends , where the City’s population is projected to grow by fewer than 3,000 persons over the next 30 years. While it is important that policy and regulatory provisions are in place to guide and direct where and how growth should occur, Plainview is faced with the challenge of first stimulating and incentivizing the very growth and development which it ultimately hopes to manage. However, these activities are an important first step in spurring the economic growth that Plainview requires to remain viable. 2.2 City of Plainview, Texas (Adopted 05.14.13) The National Council for Public Private Partnerships defines a “public- private partnership” as “a contractual agreement between a public agency (federal, state or local) and a private sector entity.
