F.ADMINISTRATIVE INQUIRIES
F.1ADMINISTRATIVE INQUIRIES
F.1.a.Alderman Chahley on Managerial Performance Reviews
___________________________________________________
PRIVATE At the recent meeting with Members of Council, the City Manager indicated that the existing Management Performance Review Process does not accurately reflect an individual's true performance or ability and that these performance reviews are classically and irrevocably wrong. Since these reviews have been accepted by Council as an honest appraisal of a person's ability and form the cornerstone for measuring the performance of a Manager, will the City Manager please provide the Executive Committee with a report for the November 3, 1993 meeting that addresses the following concerns:
1.What specifically is wrong with the current process?
2.How long have you been aware this review process is flawed and does not provide accurate measurement of Managerial Staff?
3.Why were no corrective measures taken as soon as it was realized a problem existed?
City Manager
Due: Nov 3/93
PRIVATE 4.What actions are you now planning that will correct this situation?
5.When and how will a new Managerial Performance Review Program be introduced and how will it differ from the current program?

F.1.bAlderman Bethel on Project Management Control
_____________________________________________
PRIVATE On January 14, 1992 Council requested that the Auditor General undertake a corporate wide review of the Project Management Control. In other words, to develop a comprehensive management policy and related procedures. That has been done by the Auditor General and I am wondering when that will come forward to Council. It was done because we had several major projects that failed to meet the objectives as to cost, time and quality, and it was a way of assisting the Administration to develop a comprehensive project management policy. So, I would like to know what has happened to that and why it hasn't been to Council. It's almost two years later.
