����� PERSONNEL BOARD
AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE: July 21, 2011
TO: Personnel Board Members
� FROM: Alfredo J. Lopez, III, Director of Human Resources ��
I � SUBJECT: Update on Department Presentations
I
!
!
�' Recommendation:
� Receive and file this report.
�
� Background:
, At the Personnel Board's May 19, 2011 meeting, the Board inquired on the status
, of the "department presentations" which were previously not authorized by the
City Manager's Office. Following the meeting, staff met with the City Manager
and confirmed the presentations are still not authorized. Moreover, should staff
hold presentations (educational or otherwise) for the Personnel Board staff
� would need to also do similar presentations for all Boards and Commissions.
Therefore, it is best for these discussions which usually take place during the
City-wide proposed budget process to be maintained at the Council level.
