<br /> <br />Ms. Maddox said the Commission is in agreement in terms of the systemic <br />approach it would be taking and building on the last report. The Commission has <br />identified areas of specific interests and most of them over arch multiple departments. <br /> <br />Mr. Matsuda asked if there was a limitation on requesting information from the <br />departments. Ms. Garson replied she didn’t think that sort of information is <br />cumbersome. She suggested staying away from specific personnel issues. <br /> <br />Mr. Matsuda commented on the face-to-face approach with the department <br />heads. He stated that realistically speaking, is the Commission going to have a chance <br />to speak to the department heads or are they going to send their deputies. <br /> <br />Ms. Kierkiewicz thought that in order to make face time with the department <br />heads, the Commission would create sub-committees. She thinks the Commission <br />should give the department heads an option. <br /> <br />Ms. Maddox stated that at the last meeting, the Commission hoped to get back <br />responses which would then allow them to see if there were any deeper issues and how <br />to go about asking for additional information. She asked Mr. Matsuda if there was not a <br />lot of response that came back from the letters. Mr. Matsuda replied not as much as <br />was expected. <br /> <br />Ms. Kierkiewicz commented there has been some really good discussion on <br />identifying over arching themes the Commission wants to focus on which should create <br />a nice road map for the group. <br /> <br />Mr. Mitchell stated he would certainly ask if there is a strategic plan that was put <br />together, if it was published and was the website updated, by whom and how often. <br />Ms. Maddox asked if the strategic plan is required to be published on the website. <br />Ms. Garson replied there is no requirement. <br /> <br />Ms. Maddox asked if they were tying technology and energy together as one or <br />two separate areas. Mr. Matsuda replied it should be two separate areas. <br /> <br />Ms. Maddox stated enhancing revenues was one of the topics talked about and <br />that the grant specialist and finance reports may come under that heading. Mr. Mitchell <br />stated the Finance Department says it keeps an on-going inventory of all lands, streets, <br />roads and easements the County owns, operates, co-owns, co-manages and leases as <br />well as an on-going inventory of equipment the County owns, operate, leases or <br />manages – he would like to see these documents. Mr. Mitchell said he would like to <br />take the lead in the Finance Department. <br /> <br />4. FORMATION OF SUBCOMMITTEES TO MEET WITH VARIOUS <br />DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES FOR THE PURPOSE OF GATHERING <br />INFORMATION FOR THE FINAL REPORT <br /> <br />Ms. Kierkiewicz noted the Commissioners should review the different <br />departments and decide on what sub-committee they would like to study.
