Summary
The city auditor found San Diego barely uses its key performance indicators when making budget decisions — only 1 of 7 council offices and 9 of 27 departments routinely use them. Goals are inconsistently defined as aspirational or realistic, making them hard to compare. Five recommendations were made and management agreed to all.
