City of Centerville Work Plan The City of Centerville plans to hire an administrative intern to assist the city administrator with economic development priorities as per the attached 2016 Centerville City Council Focus Goals and On Going Priorities in addition to the 2017 Goals which have not been finalized after the January 25, 2017 City Council/Commissions Goalsetting Session. In addition, the intern would work with other city staff in the different departments to help them achieve their goals and objectives and in turn provide the intern with the valuable experience and skills. This internship is very much a hands on experience with the intern focusing on accomplishing goals of the city council and commissions. We have an open door policy which allows the intern to ask questions at any time with direction provided by the city administrator. We focus on the development of communication skills, organizational skills, project management, writing reports, preparing meeting agendas and minutes, research, and data management. The intern will meet with chamber of commerce staff, economic development professionals and business owners to accomplish economic development objectives. We teach professional city management skills, time management skills, and interpersonal communication skills. The intern will be presenting to the city council, planning and zoning commission, and park and recreation commission as well. The city is committed to providing a professional experience that will develop the skills and abilities which are necessary to be a successful city administrator. The start date will be flexible as to the availability of the intern with a 40 hour work week at $10/hr. for a period up to six months. 76
