Background:

In 2010, the Legislature created the Council on Local Results and Innovation. In February 2011, the Council released a standard set of ten performance measures for counties and ten performance measures for cities that will aid residents, taxpayers, and state and local elected officials in determining the efficacy of counties and cities in providing services and measure residents' opinions of those services.


In February of 2012, the Council created a comprehensive performance measurement framework for cities and counties to implement in 2012. Cities and counties that choose to participate in the new standards measurement program may be eligible for a reimbursement in local government aid (LGA) or County Program Aid (CPA).


The data for the program is collected by the Hennepin County Integrated Data and Analytics Department and will be available for public review on the Hennepin County website.
