RESOLUTION NO. 20170608-011 WHEREAS, on April 13, 2017 the Austin City Council approved Resolution No. 20170413-027, which created the City Manager Search Advisory Task Force (the "Task Force") and directed the Task Force to recommend and execute an outward-facing community process to recommend to the Council a City Manager profile for use in connection with the current search for Austin's next City Manager; and WHEREAS, the Task Force met on May 19, 2017, and unanimously approved the attached proposed work plan, which would establish an outward-facing community process consistent with Council's direction in Resolution No. 20170413-027; and WHEREAS, the Task Force recommends approval of the attached proposed work plan by the Council; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: The Council approves the attached proposed work plan, and directs the Task Force to execute the outward-facing community process and report its results to the Council as provided in the proposed work plan. ADOPTED: June 8, 2017 ATTEST: nnette S. Goodall City Clerk Page 1 of 4 Updated City Manager Search Advisory Task Force Proposed Work Plan Austin is in the Initial stages of ushering in a new form of governance. The success of the 10-1 Council depends on a productive and trusting partnership with the City Manager. This partnership is the most basic building block of successful policy making and implementation. Our city is part of one of the fastest growing urban areas in the country. The opportunities and challenges associated with this growth must be identified quickly to ensure we preserve the special character of Austin and grow with grace. The selection of the next City Manager is the most important decision the Mayor and Council make. That final decision should flow from a community process that reaches deep into the community and broadly across the country. On April 13, 2017, the Austin City Council created The City Manager Search Advisory Task Force to develop and conduct a community engagement process intended to shape a candidate profile for the next city manager. The Mayor and Council recognize the importance of engaging our community in identifying the kinds of skills, abilities, experience and personal characteristics the next City Manager should possess. Gaining this input on the front end of the process is critical because it will inform the subsequent recruiting process, candidate pool and narrowing of that pool to semi-finalists. The Task Force …
