Regular City Council Meeting Monday,April 15, 2013 Page 27 Public Works Director Duane Schwartz reviewed the duties of this function (e.g. supervision, work planning, purchasing) all dependent on contract status, which can be heavy at times. Based on tonight's discussion, Mr. Schwartz asked that Finance Director Miller review the listed budget figure for that item, as it appeared to be high to him, which Mr. Miller duly noted. Central Garage Organizational Management (Code 4) Councilmember Etten noted the general maintenance budget shifted considerably. Mr. Schwartz advised that his ranking rationale was similar to that used by Mr. Trudgeon, if critical to performing a function, the level of service was rated at a "5" or higher, with level"5" still considered by him to be a high service level. Mayor Roe thanked all Department Heads for their attendance and assistance in processing this information. City Manager Malinen noted that the April 22, 2013, had this item for adoption in accordance with the budget calendar; and asked if the City Council wished anoth- er iteration as part of the process and based on tonight's exercise and subsequent discussion. By consensus, Councilmembers expressed their preference for a second iteration, and determined a deadline of Wednesday night to be included as part of the agen- da packet. At the request of Councilmember Laliberte, City Manager Malinen advised that addition of the FTE information would be discussed at the Department Head meeting with Finance Director Miller. At the recommendation of Mayor Roe, and by consensus, Councilmembers determined that it was only fair for staff to com- plete the exercise again as well based on tonight's discussion. City Manager Malinen suggested the acronym "DISC" as an easy way to remem- ber the ranking rubric, Desirable, Important, Significant and Critical. 13. Business Items (Action Items) a.
