TEAM FORMATION PLAN <br /> Issue: Plan Review Process <br /> Team Members: Chris H., John E., Fred, Gary, Scott D., Peggy K., Andrea R., Jackie H., Margaret <br /> (facilitator) <br /> The Purpose of this Team: To develop a framework that ensures continuous improvement of the <br /> Plan Review Process utilizing a conflict resolution model as appropriate and case studies to identify <br /> successes and opportunities for improvement. <br /> This Team was Formed Because: Recent changes in the Plan Review Process (including land -use <br /> and PIC Building review) have had negative effects on Maintenance, Parks and Open Space and <br /> Transportation divisions. The utilization of 131 funds for 151 work due to the self - supporting mandate <br /> and the resulting lack of funds for Planning staff are identified as a key contributing factor. <br /> The Known Constraints of this Project are: This process is not a re- design of the Plan Review <br /> Process; rather, it is intended to ensure efficiency, as well as identify and fill gaps in the existing <br /> system. <br /> The Team is charged with Consultative (Level 3) Decision - Making Authority. <br /> The action team provides research, analysis, creativity, and solid thinking to produce a series of process <br /> design recommendations or solutions, but the team holds no authority to decide on which, if any, will <br /> be implemented. As a caution, team members must not set their hearts on a particular <br /> recommendation and then feel disappointed if the decision is not implemented. <br /> Team /Sponsor Communication Requirements Are: <br /> Team /Department- Division Management Communication Requirements Are: <br /> The Team Ground Rules: <br /> How Will We Know When We're Finished? <br /> How Will We Measure Success? <br /> Start Date: Target Completion Date: <br /> Remarks, Comments, Additional Documentation: Identify what has changed since last effort at <br /> Plan Review improvement (need Kurt's review). Clear direction on some issues (i.e., open waterways). <br /> Interdivisional coordination at Development Review (Land Use and Building Permit). Look at both <br /> short- and Tong -range issues and some recommendations. <br />
