City Council Meeting continued until 4 Oct., 2010
Reports: 1) Mr. Smith requested the Department Head issue be placed on the agenda. Previously brought up to place department heads as Classified, regular employees instead of appointed unclassified employees. (Comment: It has been previously recommended by an investigator that Performance Standards be implemented for Scottsboro City employees. Currently the City of Scottsboro does not have a system of contractual, objective, performance standards in place. This has created serious management problems in the past years. Unfortunately city officials refuse to implement a professional system of performance planning and employee evaluations based on an objective performance standards system of appraisals. The current system by Scottsboro is out of date and allows for political interference instead of a measurable objective system of performance standards as recommended in an official investigation 5 years previous.
2) Budget Hearings to begin Oct. 5, 2010 at 4PM in city Hall.
