Frye reported as part of the Strategic Plan the need was identified to review Committee structures/roles and the goal
is to improve the effectiveness. Staff is starting the process by holding the Finance Committee on an off-night and
noted that Policy level discussions need more time than standard operations issues. Staff is looking for direction.
c. Discuss Committee Structure and Future Meeting Dates
The Committee favors a quarterly or 3 times a year meeting for more in-depth information. It was suggested
the Department Head should approach the Committee Chair, Mayor and Administrator to determine if a
Special Meeting is necessary.
d. Discuss 2022 Budget Calendar
Sullivan handed out a Capital and Operating Budget calendar of 2022 meeting dates. The Committee
requested salary splits between departments shown as a total, not just a percentage. The Committee also
wants to see grand totals for all account numbers such as Training and Travel, Office Supplies, etc. In
addition, the Committee would like to go back to having the Public Hearing and adoption of the budget on
the same night.
