Consideraton of the 1993 Port Authority Operating BudgetCITY OF ROSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION PORT AUTHORITY COMMISSION MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 1, 1992 AGENDA ITEM: AGENDA SECTION: BUDGET REVIEW OLD BUSINESS PREPARED BY: AGENDA NO. JOHN MILLER, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR ATTACHMENTS: APPROVED By - REVISED 1993 PORT AUTHORITY BUDGET -SECTION 207 i I have attached a revised - well actually new - Section 207 for inclusion in the 1993 Port Authority budget. The new Section 207 addresses the suggestion of Commissioner Edwards to complete an "audit and evaluation" of Port Authority activities and projects. John Edwards is right. It is an important work task to study what we've done and to measure our successes and failures. The new Section 207 requires us to do that work. The Port Authority has the option of approving a budget (amended however you would like) at the December 1 meeting or setting a meeting date prior to December 10 to adopt a budget. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve the 1993 Port Authority budget as submitted and amended (or) Motion to set (add date) as a meeting date to consider the 1993 Port Authority budget. PORT AUTHORITY ACTION: Budget Category: 207 Budget Item: Audits and Evaluations Description of Work: The Port Authority is required by law to complete an annual reprot of its activities for the City Council. In addition, the commissioners need to review their own accomplishments in a manner that provides both an evaluation of procedures and results. Standars should be adopted that provide quantifiable criteria for year-to-year comparisons: Obviously it is hoped the commissioners and thier staff people will improve the quality of their operations as a result of this work. It is also hoped the work tasks of the Port Authority will become mroe focused as results of different activities are studied.
