About Us


The following are summaries of each division's activities.

Risk Management: Under the management and leadership of Teri Enos, Risk Manager, the purpose of this Division is to develop and maintain a safe and healthy environment for the citizens and employees of the City in order to preserve the City's assets and service capabilities. This is accomplished via four major functional program areas of the Division: Employee Benefits, Safety, Insurance/Liability, and Disability Management.

Operations: The Operations Division provides high quality customer service to all City departments as well as to all individuals who visit our department. The Operations Division focuses efforts on recruitment and testing for vacant positions throughout the City, as well as performs labor relations, employee relations, and acts as a "partner" to each department to help solve complicated human resource issues. This Division also administers provisions of the four labor MOU's and is home to a very successful volunteer coordination program.

The Near Future…

Though our major accomplishments have been many over the years, our goals and challenges continue. During FY 07 we hope to host another successful Volunteer Recognition Event, and complete another round of entry level Police Officer and Firefighter recruitments.

The City will experience numerous retirements over the next few years as a direct result of implementation of enhanced retirement benefits. These retirements will create opportunities for individuals to promote and fill positions of leadership, and for new people to enter our work force, bringing fresh ideas and enthusiasm.

One of our biggest challenges is providing high quality benefits for our employees while tackling the double-digit premium increases for health and other insurances. We will continue to look for ways to streamline payroll and benefit functions with an eye towards further automation of our processes.
