Description

This report was published through The Community Indicators Chapter of the Tricentennial Plan. The indicators it focuses on are mainly social ones such as population growth, family income, and education. The report defines its methodology and the terms that go along with it. In the introduction, the Janus face of indicators is made explicit. They reflect, as well as produce. They create a representational map of what was/is, while also leading to the creation of new plans and sustainable design for the future. Indicators act as the crucial conduit between evaluation and planning.
