City of Stockton Action Teams

To ensure that the goals and objectives of the City Council are met, the City Manager has created Action Teams. These Actions Teams often times are made up of members not just from city departments but may also include community members and representatives from other agencies. Including all players from various agencies in this collaborative effort avoids duplication of efforts and keeps all agencies working on an issue informed.
