Item No, 16 <br />TO: Mayor & Council <br />FROM: John Godwin, City Manager <br />SUBJECT: ANNUAL DEPARTMENTREPORTS <br />DATE: May 30, 201 <br />BACKGROUND: As we have done the last several years, we are beginning our budget <br />preparation cycle with annual reports on each of our departments. This provides the council an <br />opportunity to learn what the departments are working on, what their major needs are, and any <br />special issues they face as we plan for the future. These priorities and needs in turn determine <br />our budget, instead of a long list of tedious line items. It also helps us to think in terms of <br />multiple years, which is crucial to managing an efficient and effective overall budget and <br />organization. <br />STATUS OF ISSUE: Public Works., Engineering. Utilities, and Finance will present their <br />reports on June 11. We will address EMS, Police, Fire, and I..,ibrary on June 25. <br />BUDGET: NA. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Discussion only, <br />
