The only financial changes are the economic <br /> development position and the inclusion of$250,000.00 appropriation from reserves for <br /> organizational change and efficiency initiatives. He said these additions lead to a total of <br /> $395,000.00, projecting a deficit which is less than 1% of the total budget. <br /> Dr. Bell explained that he wanted to cover some possibilities for the one time allotment <br /> of the $250,000.00. He then spoke about organizational efficiencies and how this is one <br /> of the prongs used to balance the budget. To that end he spoke about the cohorts <br /> which are groups of employees that have been looking at different ways to implement <br /> efficiencies. There are four cohorts: Administrative Processes, Budgeting and <br /> Processing, Employee Engagement and Technology and these groups were all part of <br /> an adaptive change workshop and have been working together for about six months. <br /> Dr. Bell said that tonight Council will be hearing from one of the cohorts and he said <br /> there are 20 of these focused ideas and five will be presented tonight. He thanked all <br /> the cohorts. <br /> JOINT CITY COUNCIL/SUCCESSOR AGENCY June 25, 2012 <br /> MEETING MINUTES PAGE 6 <br /> MINUTE BOOK NO. 64 <br /> Page No. 160 <br />
