HomeMy WebLinkAbout08 Meeting Exhibits,
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Ryan R. Schroeder, City Administrator
Date: February 1, 2012
Subject: Goals Meeting Exhibits
We have enclosed a number of exhibits in this packet for Council edification. We are not
necessarily anticipating discussion on all of these exhibits but have included them here for
background information that may inform your discussion on related matters.
The exhibits are as follows:
1. Tentative IMTF review schedule:
This is still malleable but provides the PW Commission and IMTF volunteers at least a
feel for the scope and scale of this project
2. Financial Metrics:
Included is 2010 tax capacity per capita, 2011 staffing per capita and 2008/9 spending
per capita comparisons with our peer communities. On tax capacity per capita we have
remained in the same relative position in comparison to peers over the past five years
which is currently 13 lowest tax capacity /capita among 36 cities. Our staffing is at 9th
lowest (7 lowest among cities with police departments). Our total operational spending
was 6 th lowest in 2008 and 4 th lowest in 2009 (2010 data is not yet available)
Current and Potential Facility Project Schedules:
Included is the current PSCH project schedule (currently on track). Also included is a
potential schedule should the City proceed with a project during 2012 for the former
pool facility (community room). Following that is a potential schedule for replacement of
Fire Station #2. Next is a worksheet that shows how the PSCH, Fire Station #2 and a
larger Recreation facility might fit together should Council pursue that path. None of
these schedules have been coordinated with financial ability. These schedules were
developed from a workload perspective and therefore represent what I believe could be
accomplished with project management similar to the PSCH project. Finally, I have
included a little additional background on the Community Center discussion to date and
a compendium of City facilities.
4. 2011 Medical performance:
Enclosed is a memorandum that basically states that our changes in medical plans for
2011 were a success for both employees and the employer. Given the uncertainty of
the future for the medical industry nationally we would not propose pursuit of any
significant plan design changes or contribution levels.
5. Compendium of Departmental Mission(s) and Objectives for 2012
These documents are straight out of the 2012 budget document. The reason they are
presented here is that we do not typically provide the opportunity for a "side by side"
comparison of the "work plan" for a budget year.
S. 2011 Goals Document:
As the agenda is formatted we are not anticipating that we will refer to this document
during your goals meeting. It is provided here, however, for your use in case it
becomes necessary. Our intent at this point in time is to work through the day with in an
interactive fashion using presentations from departments as a jumping off point. It is
anticipated that your discussion /input will provide staff the opportunity to present
summarizing documents subsequent to your workshop.
