He has broken out administrative support after discussions among staff. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked for clarification on the levels and if the three <br />directors were on the same pay scale. <br /> <br />City Administrator Moorse stated this was the case. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding the different organizational structure proposals and <br />how the work would break down into the various departments. <br /> <br />City Administrator Moorse indicated he would like to have an organizational <br />structure better defined and in place before the TCAAP development begins. He <br />stated this would allow for smooth movement of these projects through staff and <br />Council. He indicated all departments will be evaluated to see what can be <br />automated for efficiency. <br /> <br />Mayor Harpstead asked how many full time employees were required for the <br />proposed organizational structure. <br /> <br />City Administrator Moorse stated it would be the 24 employees, which was the <br />same number currently on staff. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden questioned where emergency preparedness fell into this <br />diagram. <br /> <br />City Administrator Moorse stated this IS currently under the Public Works <br />Director. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked who would be handling the elections. <br /> <br />City Administrator Moorse indicated he would like a deputy city clerk on staff to <br />be the expert in this area. He stated the deputy clerk was put into the budget for <br />2009. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated she felt there may be objection to the deputy city <br />clerk because the City was so fiscally conservative. <br />
