Agenda Item Summary:
Currently the City’s GIS and Transit Divisions are housed in the City’s Public Works Dept. Both Divisions work closely with the Community Development Dept. staff. The GIS Division was previously under the Community Development Dept. Based on the current collaboration required between these divisions and Community Development the Mayor and staff are seeking to move these divisions from under the supervision of the Public Works Director and assign oversight responsibility to the Director of Community Development. Since both of these divisions are assigned to the Public Works Dept. by ordinance an ordinance amendment is necessary to transfer these divisions between the two departments.
