Item No. 14 <br />TO: Mayor & Council <br />FROM: John Godwin, City Manager <br />SUBJECT: ANNUAL DEPARTMENT REPORTS <br />DATE: May 30, 2019 <br />BACKGROUND: As we have done the last several years, we are beginning our budget <br />preparation cycle with annual reports from each of our departments. This provides the council <br />an 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, Community Development, Utilities, and Finance will <br />present their reports on June 10. We will address EMS, Police, Fire, and Library on June 24. <br />BUDGET: NA. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Discussion only. <br />
