REVIEW OF CSA EVALUATION PROCESS
SUBJECT:
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: It was brought to my attention at a
recent meeting of the Pittsburg Area Council on September 5 , that four
evaluation processes are required of each of the delegate agencies. A
number of representatives of the delegate agencies, including those
from the United Council of Spanish Speaking Organizations and
Concerted Services Project, complained that the evaluation process was
"Mickey Mouse" and that it was a waste of time. Other members of the
audience and other representatives of the area council expressed
strong opinions that in the midst of the dedicated effort to try to
continue to deliver services that an elaborate evaluation process is
ridiculous. I expressed the same feelings and was amazed to learn of
the amount of time and really "wasted energy" that is expended in this
evaluation and "paper shuffling" process.
The current evaluation process should be examined to see how it
could be streamlined to perhaps one evaluation per year. The mandates
and guidelines that must be met should be identified and the necessary
procedure determined to amend or waive these guidelines or mandates to
allow for sensible, efficient streamlining of our evaluation
procedures.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to the County Administrator ' s Office
and the Community Services Administration for a report to the Board of
Supervisors in two weeks on their review and recommendation for
streamlining the current CSA evaluation process.
