Performance management reporting provides information on the efficiency and effectiveness of the City of Tacoma’s operations. The City hopes that by making this information accessible, citizens will be better informed about the effectiveness of some City programs, how tax revenues are being spent, and progress toward the City's goals.
2017-2018 Reports
The City of Tacoma is enhancing its performance management system by moving to a set of online dashboards for reporting at Results253. A number of department goals, including Fire, Police, Community & Economic Development, Neighborhood & Community Services, Public Works, and Permitting, have been moved to the dashboard. Those goals can be viewed at data.cityoftacoma.org. The rest of the City’s performance goals can be reviewed in the following report until all goals are migrated to the new site by March 2018.

24/7 Performance Reporting
Tacoma 24/7 is a quarterly report on 24 performance measures in seven key service areas. The service areas and measures were selected due to their connection to the City Council’s strategic priorities, relevancy to citizens, policy makers, and city management, and ability to be collected quarterly.
