Strategic Plan

The City of Rehoboth Beach adopted in May 2025 a strategic plan that identifies three priority areas – and associated strategies and action steps – for the city to focus on over the next five years.

The three primary focus areas identified are:

  • continually improving access and amenities throughout the city.
  • building and maintaining foundational and forward-looking infrastructure
  • fostering excellence and coordination in all city operations

The 2025 Strategic Plan was developed by planning consultant Emergent Method following a stakeholder-driven engagement process undertaken in the fall of 2024. Engagement strategies included community surveys, in-person and virtual listening sessions, and one-on-one interviews. Quarterly, a report on strategic plan goals will be presented to the Board of Commissioners as a way to mark progress and ensure accountability to the community.
