SUMMARY STATEMENT:

 

In preparation for a very busy fall term, I wanted to take a quick moment to refresh the Town Council on certain policies and procedures related to agenda setting and utilization of staff time. The goal is to establish certain baseline expectations related to agenda setting and staff utilization in an effort to reduce inefficiencies and maximize staff productivity of their regular duties, as well as making efficient use of time on those additional projects and programs as requested by the full Town Council. In particular, the discussion will include:

 

                     Preferences for Town Council requests to add items to a future agenda

                     Expectations for amount of staff time available for direct support to Council Members and their individual requests for information or action.

                     Expectations for amount of legal staff time available for direct support to Council Members and their individual requests for information or action.

                     Other Town Council Policy and Procedures

 

 

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

None
