previously determined. I think it would be positive if options that were presented to Council were designed to enlist support from the broadest range of Councilors, and therefore the community they represent. An attempt to incorporate a range of underlying values and objectives instead catering to a slim majority of votes would unify the Council and ultimately the community. He should not be so quick to make excuses or justify his actions or his subordinate's actions. He should use restraint in hiring consultants and facilitators. Are there any specific goals and objectives you would like to set for the Manager for the coming year? ~- Complete preparations of all action plans addressing the Council's 8 priority goals and begin implementing as many of those as possible. As I said last year, I wish the Manager could figure out a way that Councilors and senior staff (not just the execs) can interact informally. This took place in earlier administrations - the sky didn't fall, and it generally led to increased efficiency and trust. None, I am sure he has plenty for himself. I'm excited about our new portal. I'd like Dennis to promote it to the .citizens & put as much of City business on it as possible. Keep transportation funding on our radar. Even thoUgh it didn't make the cut for Council goals, it is so important to resolve! Yes, the Council has been difficult and time consuming in setting goals and objectives, when we do get on them and get an implementation plan proposed ASAP. While the cities public relations at the highest level are good, it could improve. Continue to protect managerial role and staff while opening up opportunities for staff and Council to work together effectively. Continue to work effectively with metro partners while acknowledging differences. Form a stronger PR arm for City with uniform messaging. 22
