With reorganization ef- 3 forts recently implemented, Mr. Trudgeon advised that staff was now in a better 4 position with time and resources to get everyone on board eventually. 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 At the request of Councilmember McGehee, City Manager Trudgeon responded that it was the goal to have everyone on board and organized by the end of 2016. Mayor Roe clarified that it was a goal, while recognizing work efforts would and could shift as well. 12 In his previous discussions with Finance Director Miller, Mayor Roe noted one 13 challenge may be to link the Capita] Improvement Program (CIP) document to the 14 infrastructure management and financial tracking documents, as well as getting 15 the park program into that CIP system allowing them to show on the same report. 16 While understanding it was just a spreadsheet that needed to be managed through 17 some expertise, Mayor Roe expressed his desire to be able to track infrastructure 18 with CIP dollars to make sure the money set aside in Enterprise Fund areas was 19 the right amount and being spent in a timely fashioned, or if it needed reallocated 20 elsewhere.
