COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Item ct
Meeting Date 9/11/97
ITEM TITLE:
Report Review of City Council Priorities
City Manager~
U (4/Sths Vote: Yes_NoXXl
SUBMITTED BY:
The City Council previously held work sessions to discuss and develop city-wide priorities. An
information memo was sent to Council on August 8, ]997 with a summary of the Council's
tentative goals and priorities, subject to final action by the City Council. The Council requested
a work session to finalize the goals and establish priorities.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council review the information, revise as required and prioritize
the goals for dissemination to staff and the public. It is recommended that staff be given
direction on its priorities so that staff may then focus departmental work plans and budget
discussions to meet these priorities.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
At the last work session on Council priorities the Council identified the "Next Steps" to be taken
with the Goals summary. These steps were:
1. Transcribe and route the Goa]s to Council for finalization and editing.
2. If there are any concerns or conflicts with what was routed, to raise those concerns at
a Council meeting under City Manager's report.
3. Ho]d a public hearing for input and prioritizing at the first ]evel.
4. Hold another workshop or at a regular Council meeting to formally adopt and confirm
priorities.
The minutes from that work session were distributed and approved by Council on March ]8,
]997. Staff had not received any feedback from the Council so an informational memo was
distributed August 8, ]997, requesting feedback on the Goals. The Council agreed to a
workshop to bring the goals setting to a conclusion.
The process to date has been facilitated by Michelle Moomaugh. It was our intent to retain
Michelle's services once again to bring this document to completion, however, she will be out
of the country at the time of the scheduled workshop. It is our recommendation that rather than
delay the process any further that we proceed with this aspect of the workshop as original]y
planned with staff assisting the facilitation.

Meeting Date 9/11/97
It is also recommended that this workshop focus on prioritization of the goals so that the results
can then be compiled and presented at a public hearing.

presented as an option for assisting in the process:
I. Review goals, clarify and correct as needed
2. Prioritize goals

3. Determine format for finalization

2. Locations and groups to target
3. Staff Direction

INFORMATION MEMORANDUM
August 8, 1997
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
VIA: John D. Goss, City Manager~
FROM: Dawn Herring, Budget Manager~
SUBJECT: Establishing city Council Priorities.
The City Council completed the initial development of the Council's
Goals and Priorities at a workshop on Saturday, March 1, 1997. At
the conclusion of that workshop, the Council specifically requested
that these goals be transcribed and routed the Council for
finalization and editing. The minutes which contained the detailed
listing of the goals were distributed and approved by Council on
March 18, 1997.
The next step was for Councilmembers to raise any concerns or
conflict with the minutes which had been routed to them at a
subsequent Council meeting. Staff has not received any feedback on
the goals as yet and now that the lengthy budget process is
completed we are presenting this memo, with the goals attached, in
order to assist in facilitating the final review process of the
City Council.
Once the Council has approved the form and format of the attached
goals, it was intended to hold a public hearing for citizen input
and prioritization. Once staff has received notification from each
Councilmember on the attached goals, 'a report shall be prepared for
a Council workshop or public hearing.
Should Council have any revisions to the attached priorities,
please forward your comments to Dawn Herring/Administration (691-
5031) .
