FROM: Lee Kraft, City Manager
SUBJECT: MONTHLY STATUS REPORTS .
This is to impose a requirement on all department heads for the preparation
and submittal to the City Manager of a monthly status report .
The purpose of the report is to cover personnel changes ; work in progress ;
work completed; significant departures from planned programs ; new
projects to be undertaken; significant trends ; meritorious performance; etc .
The report is to be primarily "How goes it ? " type of report and should
reach the Manager' s desk during the first week of each month , no later than
the fifth working day of the month .
The idea is to cover your operation quite thoroughly , but to do so in a brief ,
terse reporting style .
Another feature to be reported on is about any steps you have taken or are
exploring about reducing operating costs and/or improving productivity .
These various departmental status reports will be the basis on which the
Manager will prepare a concise monthly composite status report for the
City Council . .
If handled properly , these reports will help to strengthen communication ties
within the management structure and between management and the City Council .
