DATE: :May 10, 1994
SUBJECT: Feasibility of Restoring Awards of Excellence and Service Awards
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
DIRECT the County Administrator to report on the feasibility of restoring the
annual "Awards Of Excellence" and the County Service Award Program previously
suspended due to budget constraints.
BACKGROUND:
In the Recommended Adjustments to the 1992-93 Proposed Budget the County
Administrator reluctantly recommended, and the Board approved, suspension of
the Award of Excellence and Employee Recognition (County Service Award)
Programs. It was noted that, in these difficult times with more stress on the
workforce, we should be increasing rather than decreasing employee recognition
programs; however, due to budget constraints the recommendations were
necessary. The recommendation concluded that the suspended Recognition and
Award programs will be considered for reinstatement in 1993 if the financial
situation improves. The programs were not reinstated.
The Board recommends that the County Administrator consider the feasibility of
restoring these two programs recognizing the efforts of the County workforce to
continue-to provide a high level of service to our citizens in the face of
diminishing resources.. We ask that the County Administrator's report include
costs of the programs and potential funding sources.
