The mission of Harvey County is to accomplish certain tasks by the public joining
together, that cannot be accomplished individually, and to provide certain services
in accordance with applicable laws. A portion of these services are required to
be provided by state law. Other services may be provided at the discretion of the
governing body of Harvey County. The services provided by Harvey County should be cost effective and achieve intended results. The benefits of a service should be more than the costs of providing the service. The services provided by Harvey County should improve the quality of life of the residents. Both the services provided and the level of taxes and fees should enhance the climate to conduct business in Harvey County. When appropriate, users who benefit from a service should pay a fee for the service to reduce or eliminate subsidies from the tax structure. As an organization based on democratic principles, Harvey County seeks broad participation from all persons in the process of making decisions. Public input is encouraged from all individuals and groups. Every person’s comments and opinions should be respected. All persons are to be treated as valued customers, and all complaints, requests, or comments are to be processed in a courteous and timely manner by all employees of Harvey County. In order to accomplish certain tasks and provide services, Harvey County may cooperate and join with other municipal governments in the county, as well as cooperate and join with private businesses, unified school districts, non-profit agencies, state government, and the federal government. Cooperation with other entities is essential for Harvey County to accomplish the mission.
