From the desk of Chief Administrative Officer Dan Borowec

Our Community Strategic Plan provides a vision for Northumberland County and serves as the roadmap to guide our decisions and our investments, and measures our progress.

Throughout the past year, our work remained focused on delivering meaningful results across our five strategic priorities: innovating for service excellence, igniting economic opportunity, fostering thriving communities, propelling sustainable growth, and championing a vibrant future. Together, these priorities reflect our commitment to delivering responsive public services while preparing Northumberland for the opportunities of tomorrow.

Behind every accomplishment highlighted in this report are the dedicated employees who serve our community each day. Whether maintaining infrastructure, caring for seniors, supporting families, strengthening economic growth, stimulating local businesses, responding to emergencies, or protecting our environment, our staff demonstrate professionalism, collaboration, and an unwavering commitment to public service.

This report is a reflection of their work and the partnerships that make it possible. I want to sincerely thank County Council, our community partners, and especially our staff for their continued dedication to serving the residents of Northumberland County.

We are dedicated to being the best practices leader of County government, and a collaborative partner with our member municipalities and community partners. Together, we are turning strategy into action and building a stronger future for our communities.
