Follow the data: How Port St. Lucie is working to better serve its residents

Bloomberg Philanthropies’ What Works Cities Certification recognizes and celebrates local governments for their exceptional use of data to inform policy decisions, allocate funding, improve services, evaluate the effectiveness of programs and engage residents. On Episode 13, we discuss the City’s certification process with Kate Parmelee, Deputy City Manager for Strategic Initiatives & Innovation, and how it’s helping to make us a more efficient, well-managed government. By using fact-based data, we can learn how to better serve residents, save time and money and make sure services are more targeted and improved.  Strategic Plan: www.cityofpsl.com/strategicplanStrategic Plan Progress & Performance Dashboard: dashboards.mysidewalk.com/2023-port-st-lucie-performance-dashboard-93226bb4b896 Citizen Summit: www.cityofpsl.com/citizensummit Bloomberg Philanthropies’ What Works Cities: whatworkscities.bloomberg.org/Stay informed about City news, events, meetings and activities: www.cityofpsl.com/stayinformed Like what you’re hearing?
