    The key trend in the City Administrators Office is continuing to build capacity within theorganization to effectively meet the goals of the City Council and objectives of adopted policyplans. Performance measures demonstrate significant activity. The demand for Public RecordsAct requests is more than anticipated with the staffing approved in the adopted budget but amanagement process is in place to effectively process requests. Requests beyond the 10-daygoal are indicative of both the volume and complexity of requests.

Fiscal transparency can bedefined to involve ready access to reliable, comprehensive, timely, understandable, and comparable information on the Citys activities.With a user friendly, less technical discussion of City finances, the report is our way of showing the taxpaying public the value of their taxdollar and accomplishments of the City on the publics behalf. These reports are prepared quarterly and distributed in November,February, May, and August so the information can be used for effective public participation and enhanced accountability.
