CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT at For Council Meeting of April 1992 TO: Honorable yor an a Council FROM: M e s City Manager Date: 4/1/92 SUBJECT: Consider Implementation Of Goals And Objectives Process BACKGROUND: The need exists to establish an annual planning framework for City Departments from which the Management Team can effectively and economically communicate their department's plans and progress to the City Manager. The goals and objectives process consists of two steps: 1. A list of primary goals and objectives, including major milestones, measurement criteria and estimated fiscal impacts, is submitted to the City Manager during annual budget preparations. 2. A status report which indicates the department's progress towards achieving its goals and objectives is submitted to the City Manager on the tenth day of the months of October, January, April and July. Please refer to the attached "Goals and Objectives Process Handbook". DISCUSSION• To best encourage a strong, department -wide commitment to the departments' annual goals and objectives, departments are encouraged to develop their goals from the program level up. This will allow first line supervisors an opportunity to recommend goals and objectives in areas for which they are responsible. Program level goals and objectives will be submitted to the applicable division/department head, who will compile them and establish his/her own objectives for submission to the City Manager. This process will put departmental goals and objectives "on the record" with the City Manager and City Council, which will strengthen each Management Team member's personal commitment to fulfilling them. The process in requiring the submissioi of four status reports by each department during the year enables us to better quantify each department's progress towards meeting established goals and objectives.
