BACKGROUND Human Resources supported the City Council’s employee performance feedback processes last year, completing the City Manager’s review in July and the Police Auditor’s review in the fall. Though both processes were successful, Human Resources is proposing a timeline for 2011 to better integrate with the council’s calendar. The proposed timeline is designed to allow the council to align the Police Auditor’s process with his employment anniversary date in June, while accommodating the City Manager’s preference for his review process to follow the City’s annual budget cycle. RELATED CITY POLICIES The City Council has historically conducted annual performance evaluations for the employees who report directly to them. COUNCIL OPTIONS  Accept the proposed time schedule  Reject the proposed time schedule  Request modification to the proposed time schedule. CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION The City Manager recommends acceptance of the schedule. SUGGESTED MOTION Move to approve the proposed time schedule for the council’s completion of the performance reviews for the City Manager and Police Auditor positions. \\Cesrv500\cc support\CMO\2011 Council Agendas\M110411\S1104112D- and Att A.doc ATTACHMENTS A.

Though both processes were successful, we would like to propose a timeline for 2011 that might integrate better with the Council’s busy work schedule. We are proposing a timeline designed to keep a bit of space between the two processes. This will also allow the Council to complete the Police Auditor’s process close to his employment anniversary date in June and accommodate the City Manager’s preference for wrapping up the annual budget cycle before the Council conducts his annual performance review. Please review the attached schedule and let us know if you have any questions or concerns or would like us to explore other options. If the proposed timeline is acceptable, we suggest placing this on the Council’s consent calendar for a decision by March 4, 2011. We look forward to working with you to ensure a smooth and effective performance review process for your employees. \\Cesrv500\cc support\CMO\2011 Council Agendas\M110411\S1104112D- and Att A.doc City Council Employee Performance Feedback Proposed Timelines for 2011 Police Auditor Activity When Ongoing presentations for City Council on 3 x’s per year status of Police Auditor work Written incident summaries Bi-monthly, or incident-based Police Auditor Annual Report 1 st Quarter of the year Collect feedback data for Police Auditor April from:  Civilian Review Board  Self-evaluation by Auditor  Any community contributors Report results of Civilian Review Board May feedback to City Council City Council reviews feedback and May completes their individual evaluations  Human Resources summarizes City Council meets with Police Auditor for June annual performance feedback session Will coincide with the Police Auditor anniversary date of June 29 Annual goals completed to City Council July City Manager Activity When Collect feedback data for City Manager June from:  Self-evaluation by Auditor  Any community and organizational contributors City Council reviews feedback and July completes their individual evaluations  Human Resources summarizes City Council meets with City Manager for End of July/Early August annual performance feedback session \\Cesrv500\cc support\CMO\2011 Council Agendas\M110411\S1104112D- and Att A.doc
