<br />City Council Regular Meeting - 01/30/06 <br />Minutes - Page 28 <br /> <br />commitments with one voice, in a mature, effective and reliable <br />manner. Council's are collections of diverse individuals who come <br />together to constitute and act as an entity, and only when operating <br />as that entity do they exercise authority and perform in fulfillment of <br />their purpose." <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust agreed that public dollars were spent by the <br />Council every time they met, specifically through inefficiencies, <br />and opined that a facilitator to analyze work styles and team <br />building efforts would prove a good value for taxpayer <br />investment. Councilmember Pust noted that citizens would <br />make it known to individual Councilmembers if they didn't <br />perceive value for their investment. <br /> <br />Staff and Councilmember Pust, were directed, by consensus, to <br />conduct initial phone interviews with those four firms identified: <br />#2 (Brass Tacks Network, Inc.); #6 (Don Salverda & <br />Associates); #13 (Neu & Company); and #14 (Center for Policy <br />Planning and Performance, Barbara Raye) for the teambuilding <br />and work style analyses, but not the strategic planning. <br /> <br />12. <br /> <br />Consider Re-Appointing Eligible Citizen Advisory <br />Commissioners, and Authorizing Staff to Advertise for <br />Citizen Volunteers for Various Commission Vacancies. <br />Councilmember Pust noted her past hesitation regarding <br />reappointment in an effort to ensure a broad base was given to <br />those wishing to serve as commissioners. However, upon further <br />review, Councilmember Pust utilized the process allowing for <br />any two Councilmembers acting together to request interviews <br />prior to reappointment; and requested another Councilmember to <br />join her request. Councilmember Pust requested a public <br />interview with Human Rights Commissioners Phillip Crump and <br />Janet Delmore, out of respect for those commissioners and to <br />familiarize herself with the candidates. Councilmember Pust <br />noted that she had not met those commissioners, and wished to <br />use the interview process to become more familiar with them and <br />their vision for this extremely important commission. <br /> <br />Councilmember Maschka offered his support for Councilmember <br />Pust's request for interviews; and requested her support for <br />reappointment of the remaining commissioners, with <br /> <br />Re-Appointing <br />Eligible Citizen <br />Advisory <br />Commissioners <br />
