Measure the success of your strategy

When will you monitor?

Once you’ve made a list of what you’ll monitor, decide:

• what you’ll monitor within the next year (priority one)
• what you’ll monitor after one year (priority two)
• what you’ll monitor after two years or more years (priority three).

Rate each item on your list as priority one, two, or three. Think about:

• the resources you’ll need, within and outside council, to do the monitoring
• the importance to council and the community
• how each one relates to policies in the city or district plan, and to council’s wider monitoring work
• whether information is already available that will make monitoring easier
• the links between the things you’re monitoring. For example, if you want to monitor air quality during the next year, it can be useful to monitor traffic density as well.
