5 <br />Assigneut l~Tumber I <br />Observe county government operations and develop a detailed <br />summary of `potential' items to be addressed in a more <br />comprehensive manner. <br />Overview: I have personally visited most county departments, <br />their facility locations and met with department directors and <br />a limited number of staff. My observations and comments are <br />not to criticize directly anything that is in place at this time. <br />My input should be viewed as an external critique aimed at <br />stimulating a closer review of existing operations. In almost <br />every observation offered, there are `reasons' why current <br />situations are as they are. What should be asked is: (1) `can we <br />improve?' (2) `ire we effective?' and (3) `are there better <br />alternatives?' I believe that there are opportunities to respond <br />affirmatively to all three of those questions. <br />I~Tote: These items are not listed in any order of priority at this <br />time. Priorities could be based upon (I) cost impacts, (2) a <br />requirement for further analysis, (3) staffing impacts, (4) <br />external review and input [state agency, advisory boards or <br />other governmental inputs], (5) county manager's prerogative, <br />(6) County Commission direction or (7) other considerations. <br />EARLIER OBSERVATIONS (submitted 6/23/9 to Mercer) <br />1.
