AGENDA REPORT ;
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager
DATE: March 24, 2011 (CC Meeting of 4/6/11)
SUBJECT: Consider Changing the Bimonthly Report to the City Council to a
Quarterly Report to the City Council
BACKGROUND
Since November 7, 2007, the City Manager has issued a "Bimonthly Report to the City
Council." Prior to that time, the report was issued on a monthly basis. This report has
been provided as an electronic document to the City Council and placed on the website.
As the City has grown, this report has also expanded. The most recent Bimonthly Report
contained 91 pages. Many items in the report also restate items the Council is already
aware of because the items were previously acted on by the Council. Such items continue
to be included in the report because it also serves as a means of keeping the public
informed.
DISCUSSION
This report requires significant effort from the various operating departments as well as the
City Manager. Most of the items in the report change very little each bimonthly period,
especially capital projects and large developments.
Effective immediately, the Bimonthly Report will become a Quarterly Report published by
the third (3rd) Friday of the month following the quarterly periods of March, June,
September, and December. To transition from a Bimonthly Report to a Quarterly Report,
the first Quarterly Report will begin June 30, 2011 (covering the months of March, April,
May and June) and published by July 15, 2011. This change is estimated to save about 30
to 40 hours of staff time per reporting period. Additionally, for only the City Council, it will
be distributed electronically in legislative format. The final Quarterly Report (without
legislative format) will continue being provided as an electronic document to the City
