4.1
SUBJECT:
Commission Policy Review — G.3d — Monitoring Performance of the General Manager
ACTION REQUESTED:
Review the policy and provide comment
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
This month commissioners are reviewing two polices, beginning with G.3d — Monitoring
Performance of the General Manager.
With policy G.3d, the Commission will ensure that it routinely and thoroughly monitors the
General Manager's job performance by comparing ERMU's accomplishments with the
Commission's Results Policies (policies G.5a-b) and by comparing ERMU's operational conduct
with the specific delegations and limits established by the Commission's Delegation to
Management Policies (G.4a-r), and consistent with Authority and Purpose Policies (G.1a-g).
Staff has redlined one potential update to section number four, which calls for a biennial
Governance Agenda. When the commission policy restructuring occurred in 2017 the
consultant initially established a rolling two year Governance Agenda. By December of 2018 the
Commission voted to switch to an annual cycle. Accordingly, staff recommends changing the
word "biennial" to "annual."
