Council Agenda Item 4e
MEETING DATE: April 17, 2017
AGENDA ITEM: Performance Measurement – Establish Survey questions for 2017
SUBMITTED BY: Finance
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: Council adopted resolution 2011-014 declaring 10 performance
measurements as developed by the State’s Council on Local Results and Innovation. The Council
accepted the survey results from 2011-2015.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 2010 State Legislature passed Statute §6.91 allowing cities
to participate in a standard measures program to provide communication to its citizens on annual basis.
The Legislature directed the State Auditor to establish a committee to identify ten (10) standard
measurements as the minimum measurements each city should adopt. A copy of the committee’s
report can be found on the State Auditor’s website.
The City declared the minimum ten (10) performance benchmarks in 2011. For 2017, the City must
conduct a follow up survey and report results of the 10 performance measures before July 1, 2017.
Does Council wish to continue to participate in the program?
The League of MN Cities will again conduct the survey on behalf of the City at no charge to the City. The
10 basic questions will be asked and the City may opts for 1-3 additional questions. Staff is wondering if
Council wishes to modify or add any questions. The survey will go live in May for a couple weeks.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: $0.14 per capita reimbursement, no payable 2018 levy limits
