Well, if we want reports, we shouldn’t just mention to a <br />Commission if we’re going to – <br />KUROZAWA: You have to put to the Mayor and Council. <br />HERKES: Are we going to hire a professional on this, or are we going to mandate every move they make? I thought we were <br />upgrading our Managing Director to hire a professional. When you evaluate the management and performance – <br />IRVINE: Of each executive and make reports as appropriate. No, make reports to the Mayor and Council and Commissions. <br />Evaluating doesn’t imply reports, I guess. <br />HERKES: It does to me. <br />IRVINE: Does it? <br />HERKES: Yes, and I would hope we would elect a Mayor that would imply reports too, and Council people that would imply <br />reports too. <br />IRVINE: Yes, obviously. <br />BESS: Our minutes may make that clear but I"ve got to tell you, I don’t think evaluating management and performance <br />includes reporting. <br />IRVINE: Yes, a report. What if we just said ‘evaluate and report on the management and performance of each’? Would that <br />do it? Do we need specify? <br />KUROZAWA: Well actually, the other thing I’m trying to keep in mind is what the public’s going to read into this because <br />having a long narrative on what they do may, in their minds, perceive that there’s more power by the Managing Director. If <br />you put a one-sentence in there, they may just look at it and say it’s another rewording of the old Charter, and maybe they <br />may not agree with what’s going on. <br />IRVINE: I should have written this whole thing up but I didn’t realize it was so complicated. I just – <br />KUROZAWA: It’s kind of redundant to put John’s ten lines. <br />SANTANGELO: Are we withdrawing again? <br />IRVINE: Let’s withdraw again and try again, John. Shall we? <br />SANTANGELO: Okay. <br />IRVINE: ‘Evaluate the management and performance of each executive agency. Make reports to the Mayor and Council on <br />the findings and recommendations of such evaluations. A report shall be made to the responsible Commission when an <br />evaluation/ and analysis is performed on a department or agency under a Commission.’ Final motion. <br />RAY: Does everybody understand that? <br />BESS: You stuck analysis in that last one. Did you mean to do that? <br />file://\\coh01\cohweb\council\charter_commission\minutes\minutes 05-31-00.html7/1/2011 <br /> <br />
