I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> i <br /> I <br /> <br /> I <br /> ! <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />i <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br /> Why above situations exist is due to current State, Metro and City policies <br /> and citizen demands. The list could go on and on. <br /> <br /> For example, as soon as we get involved with the citizens in regards to the <br /> on-site City sewer code, we will be rising up a considerable block of time that <br /> we don't have now. Consequently, we establish another priority and something <br /> else that we currently do will have to slide which in time c~eates another problem <br /> for the City. <br /> <br /> 2. Public Works Staff ha~ increased by one between 1978 and the present. They <br /> are responsible for all City streets, park maintenance and other jobs of a <br /> miscellaneous nature. As is true with the Administrative Department, is true <br /> with the Public Works Department. Since 1978, the City has become involved <br /> with park improvements which is going to put a tremendous workload on public <br /> works which is now going to be faced with what comes first - street maintenance <br /> or park maintenance. <br /> <br /> 3. Police Department has been increased by two patrol officers, one police chief <br /> and one secretary between 1978 and the present. Their workload is increasing <br /> by leaps and bounds due to population growth spread over a large area. <br /> <br />City Staff Goals <br /> <br /> 1. The Staff has, ever since 1978 through the present, established goals for the <br /> new year. However, this year, 1984, has really been a problem for us because <br /> we find our goals are just to stay at a status quo level and that it's not even <br /> possible. <br /> <br /> 2. As the Staff sees it, the problems of meeting City needs started commencing <br /> in 1981 and it just keeps growing. We hope to see the following happen in 1984: <br /> <br />a. Computer go on line <br /> <br />b. Adopt and begin enforcement of on-site septic system ordinance <br />c. Complete recodification of City ordinances <br /> <br />d. Complete fiscal analysis for five (5) year capital improvement <br /> budget and publish it <br /> <br />e. Get property legislation enacted on State local aid <br /> <br /> f. Resolve economic development problems with Council <br /> <br />g. Policies have to be written on a number of major internal areas <br /> so that they can be better administered <br /> <br /> h. Review of comprehensive plan in regards to City Code <br /> <br />i. Redo certain job descriptions that do not adequately define <br /> individual duties <br /> <br />j. Complete wetlands ordinance <br /> <br /> k. Complete City general files <br /> <br /> 1. Zoning administrative duties internal <br /> <br /> <br />
