At that time 1 <br />indicated I would put together a process for reviewing our current organizational structure and <br />the recruitment of a new Director. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />I recommend thaI the City not proceed with the recruitment of an O&M Director at this time, <br />Rather I would like to implement the attached process and timeline, which allows time to <br />develop and review options for the future of the O&M Department. I reviewed many historical <br />minutes and reports regarding previous reorganizations and now have some background on how <br />the City arrived at the existing structure for the department. However, I am not sure the existing <br />structure is the best alternative as we move forward in the future. Therefore I would like to take <br />approximately two months to study the issue before commencing with recruitment. With <br />Council approval I will proceed with the information gathering stage of the proposed process. <br />(Some preliminary work has been done, We have obtained sample organizational structures <br />form other cities, and I've initiated discussions with the City of Roseville about the role of <br />engineering services in the future.) <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />Approve the attached process and timeline and direct staff to begin implementation. <br /> <br />Attachment <br />MW <br />\\metro-inetlardellhillsiAdminICity Administrator'MemoI2006\6-/2-06 Memo RE O&M Timeline,doc <br />
