1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION FEBRUARY 9, 1994 <br />report and outlined the report. The report contained updates on <br />the Community Policing Program and personnel issues. Chief <br />Pecchia noted that he is in the process of hiring another full <br />time police officer. Information contained in the report <br />included information regarding calls, arrests and citations, as <br />well as newspaper articles, letters from citizens and the news <br />release for the month. A mission statement is being prepared and <br />will be available with the February report. <br />Mr. Schumacher asked the City Council to contact him if there is <br />anything else they feel should be in the monthly report. Mayor <br />Reinert noted that this report contained a lot of material. He <br />said he would browse through the report but would not have time <br />to read all of it.

He felt this type of organization would make the <br />department heads more accountable and eliminate the overlapping <br />of duties. Mr. Schumacher explained that the purpose for the new <br />organizational chart was to "flatten" out the structure. <br />A proposed salary range handout was given to the City Council. <br />Mr. Tesch explained that he used the Stanton Report and <br />referenced cities of over 10,000 in population and cities under <br />10,000 in population but similar to Lino Lakes in terms of <br />development and size.
