<br />Why above situations exist is due to cun-ent 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 cun-ently do will have to slide which in time creates 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 />D. 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 />Z. 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 /> <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 />
