The City Manager Performance Review is a new process, reflective of the greater accountability, transparency, and feedback.

The City Manager Performance Review process enables greater accountability, transparency, and feedback. This is the second year we have conducted a City Manager Performance Review. This review is the result of a structured process that began with approving the performance review process and City Manager Goals at the April 12 Government Operations Committee meeting. We held a mid-year check-in at the August 5 Government Operations Committee. This next step, submitting an annual review of goals and performance by November 15 will be followed by the City Council’s formal evaluation delivered at a Special City Council Meeting on December 11.

Come join us for an afternoon of fun watching the Boston Red Sox on our TV in the drop-in lounge. We will serve hot dogs, popcorn, pretzels, ice cream and cold sodas.
