Natural Resources and Parks Performance Measures
Report, 2004
 |
For current performance measures, please visit our Web site, KingStat: Environmental Indicators and Performance Measures for King County, Washington.
King County is committed to creating a high performance organization that is accountable to the public we serve. As part of this commitment, the Department of Natural Resources and Parks is in its third year of measuring our performance and using this performance information to improve the environment and quality of life in King County.
The aggressive targets we have set show our ambition for the future. In some cases our challenge is to continue a high level of performance and in others, we must improve to realize our vision for this region.
Sharing our performance goals and progress with the public is critical to the success of this new way of managing and demonstrating accountability. We invite you to read the report and share you thoughts with us through the opinion survey below.

As an agency, we are interested in the state of the environment and want to improve its condition and achieve specific outcomes. However, this report is not a comprehensive assessment of the King County environment. We are focusing our measurement efforts on indicators that measure conditions where our programs have either a potentially positive or negative influence. Other environmental conditions, such as air quality, impervious area, or land uses, are not within our agency's purview. The following reports offer a broader look at issues related to environmental quality, indicators and sustainability:
