City Strategic Plan 

The Strategic Plan encompasses the City of Hollywood’s vision to become “South Florida’s top city to live, learn, work, invest, and play.” As one of the many municipal governments in South Florida, the City Commission and Administration recognize that this is a bold vision, but are committed to doing our best to realize it. That is why the City established a purpose and mission within the Strategic Plan to provide “a thriving community where quality living is available to all.” We have developed this Strategic Plan to help move the City of Hollywood toward a brighter future.

This Plan sets the direction and foundation for the work the City will undertake. The primary purpose of this document is to align all relevant municipal activities toward Mission and Vision achievement and to assist our city’s leadership in making calculated decisions while managing our resources.
