1 Mr. Childs indicated that, depending on how large the League Liability 2 Insurance refund is, staff had to be credited for the City not having 3 to make the anticipated transfer of reserve funds to cover loss of 4 revenues from Revenue Sharing and liquor revenues this year. He said 5 the funds are within $20,000 or $30,000 of being balanced and indi- 6 cated he would make a final report within 30 days. The November 7 Financial report was then ordered filed along with the December Fire 8 Department report, which had been expanded to total the time and 9 number of runs as requested by the Council. 10 CITY MANAGER 11 January 5, 1988 Staff Meeting Notes 12 The above had reported the department priorities/goals for 1988 for 13 all the City departments except the Fire Department, which Mr. Childs 14 indicated would be taken care of at the next staff meeting. He said 15 each department head had listed the high priority goals they hoped to 16 achieve in 1988 and were seeking any feedback the Mayor and Council - 17 members might want to offer related to either the short term tasks the 18 staff had set for itself or longer term goals to be discussed further 19 when the staff and Councilmembers meet to do that planning. 20 Councilmember Makowske asked that the list be made a part of the 21 retreat agenda and indicated she was particularly appreciative that Mr. 22 Hamer had listed areas where he was looking for policy consideration 23 with regard to the tennis courts, concrete street repairs, and 24 recycling. 25 Government Training Service Representative to Facilitate 26 REtreat 27 The Council concurred with Mr. Childs' recommendation that Barbara 28 Arney be retained to facilitate the planning sessions with Lyle 29 Sumekto be contacted to facilitate next year's session, if he is 30 available. When he indicated the last weekend in February seemed to 31 be the best time for most of the staff, Councilmember Marks reminded 32 the other Councilmembers that he is teaching a class every Saturday 33 through March 26th and he wondered if the retreat could be delayed 34 until after April 1st. The Manager indicated he would see if Ms. 35 Arney and the department heads would be available for the weekend of 36 April 8th and 9th. All agreed that there were too many things 37 scheduled after those dates to hold the meeting any later in April. 38 Council Action 39 Motion by Makowske, seconded by Enrooth to authorize the City Manager 40 to schedule a long range goal setting and planning retreat for Friday 41 evening, April 8th and all day Saturday, April 9th, at the Scanticon 42 Center in Plymouth and if that is not possible to go back to the 43 weekend of February 26th and 27th as originally planned. 4
