<br />fA-I <br /> <br />CITY MANA GER'S OFFICE <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: City Council <br /> ;J <br />FROM: Ed Everett. - <br />SUBJECT: Council Priorities <br />DATE: February 28,2000 <br /> <br />---------------------------------------------- <br /> <br />On Saturday, January 29, you initially generated about 12 potential priority areas and <br />narrowed them down to 6 MAJOR PRIORITY AREAS. You then generated a large list <br />of activities under each PRIORITY AREA, after eliminating duplications and merging <br />similar proposals you ended up with approximately 38 activities spread out throughout <br />the 6 PRIORITY AREAS. <br /> <br />Prior to the Council Meeting of February 14, you individually ranked the activities under <br />each priority area. Due to the lack of time at that meeting, you set March 6,5:30 p.m. to <br />7:00 p.m., to complete the next phase. Cecil Reeves will assist you in narrowing the 38 <br />activities to a reasonable number. My suggestion is that the Council try to cut this list at <br />least in half. It is important to keep staff focused so that we complete projects and <br />programs. Handling too many "high priority" projects in addition to the normal day-to- <br />day functions that must be handled, it is not effective for staff and is probable frustrating <br />for you. <br /> <br />In order to assist you in this effort, staff has tried to display the data in useful ways and <br />provided the information you requested at the February 14th meeting. A description of <br />each attachment is listed below. <br /> <br />Attachment 1 - A ranking of the activities under each Priority Area listed from highest <br />to lowest. This attachment also lists each of your individual rankings along with the <br />group ranking and converted point total. <br /> <br />~..... .--.. T <br />
