Administrative Studies

We review the management structure of the municipality, including the number of supervisors, middle managers, and rank-and-file employees to review the skills, training, and knowledge of all management personnel, and whether the skills, experience, and number of the rank-and-file employees are sufficient to meet the need for services. We will meet with department heads, elected officials, and other management personnel to look at the efficiency and productivity of the public services being offered by the municipality. We also review the ordinance book, ordinance codification manual, minute book, and other documents for compliance with state law.
