The Monitoring Strategy will be a supporting document to City Plan: Nanaimo ReImagined and the Integrated Action Plan, and is designed to assess the overall progress towards achieving City Plan's Nanaimo Framework. The Framework includes the Five City Goals: Green, Connected, Healthy, Empowered, & Prosperous.
The Monitoring Strategy tracks the success of the framework through both key and supportive indicators. The key indicators will tell us how the City is doing at a high-level and how closet or how far we are to defined goals. The supportive indicators will tell us how the City is doing in a specific area and can show us over time if we are moving in the right direction.
As we move forward, we will want to keep tabs on how we are doing and see how collective efforts are moving us towards the Five City Goals. Monitoring and reviewing allow us to look back, take stock, and adjust our efforts as needed to keep us on the right path.

Reviewing & Updating
The Monitoring Strategy is a living document to be reviewed and updated as key indicators are being developed or adjusted based on emerging information or knowledge. Monitoring will be carried out under two time frames:
Annual Monitoring will rely on data that is available on any given year to provide a check-in on performance. Findings could lead to prioritization of new or existing actions in the IAP or completion of other studies needed to accelerate progress. Annual monitoring may also identify minor City Plan amendments for consideration. An update on the incomplete key indicators and a review of proposed and existing indicators will also be included.
Four Year Monitoring will provide a more comprehensive monitoring report. It will be carried out in tandem with a full IAP review and community engagement and aligned with Council’s strategic planning cycle. The four year report will provide a more in-depth review of progress, analysis of trends influencing performance on monitoring indicators, and potential recommendations for how City Plan policy and regulations may need to be adapted as part of a City Plan review and update.
The City will engage with residents on the monitoring results and seek community input to help inform Integrated Action Plan update. The monitoring findings will also be considered when the City undertakes a comprehensive City Plan review and update.
Progress on the project and background documents are available on the Monitoring Strategy Project Page.
Dynamic Dashboard
The City intends to establish regular monitoring in an efficient and timely manner and broadly communicate available reporting on progress of monitoring indicators. Instead of updating the Monitoring Strategy frequently, the City will have a dedicated web space for City Plan monitoring and update indicators as data becomes available. The City will aim to use a dynamic dashboard to make the monitoring results accessible and user-friendly. Stay tuned!
