2003 LEGISLATIVE REPORT
General Comments/Overview/Executive Summary
December 31, 2002
I. Statewide Vision, Philosophy and Functional Goals
- A. Vision
We envision a Wyoming where people can develop the skills needed to seize
the opportunities to live their individual dreams; a Wyoming where people
enjoy an environment free from contaminants and secure from harm; a Wyoming
where people can attain a quality standard of living; and a Wyoming where people
can enjoy the benefits of our bountiful resources and natural beauty.
- B. Philosophy
Public service is a public trust. As public servants, we take pride in
the service we perform for our fellow citizens. We will be open, ethical,
responsive, accountable, and dedicated to the public we serve. In the
current context of the public's view of government, we must respond to
citizen's needs in a manner that is more positive, more accommodating, and
more attentive than ever before. Within our limited resources, we believe
that innovation and creativity are keys to our long term success.
Through management support, training and development, and a respect to the
views of our citizens, our employees will be empowered to deliver quality
services.
- C. Functional Goals
Functional Goals include establishing a program: which will ensure the wise, productive
and economically sound use of the state's natural resources while protecting
and preserving our environment; which will manage the state's water resources
within the context of state priorities; and which will minimize the impact of federal pre-emption
of priorities and procedures.
