Proposed Retreat RE: City Manager Evaluation
Posted: Tue Apr 12, 2016 2:37 pm
The Mayor Pro Tem and I recommend we proceed with completing the Manager’s review as follows. (NOTE: This scenario does not have us addressing the matter in executive session this week.)
Rather than meet this week, the Council will next do a day and a half “retreat” on dates to be determined (we’ll propose shortly):
The first morning we would complete our forward looking conversation with the Manager concerning management generally, consistent with our prior discussion.
That afternoon, we would meet in open session to discuss the Council’s priorities for the City and for ourselves. This conversation would continue the following morning. Our hope would be to reach consensus on priorities for the coming year.
We would thereafter re-convene, on another day, to finalize Part 6 of the Manager’s evaluation where we will set goals and measures that would serve as the starting point for next year’s performance review.
Question: Please respond and let us know if you would prefer the day and a half “retreat” to be during the work week? Or if you’d prefer to meet on a Friday and then finish at noon on Saturday with a hard stop time?
