Personnel needs cannot be met with current staffing. The Personnel Department continually strives to streamline operations. We must have an increase of hours in support staff in order to achieve department goals and priorities and to improve greater efficiency. i.e., centralizing all documents, review of town policies, continuing the annual review of job descriptions and rating of town positions. This action will make the department more cost effective. Recommendation: The Finance Committee recommends approval.
