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. In 2013, the Council revised the performance measures and clarified the system requirements to increase participation in the program. Participation in the standard measures program by a city or a county is voluntary. Counties and cities that choose to participate in the standard measures program must officially adopt and implement the ten minimum performance measures and system developed by the Council.
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.
