RE: Policy Format Policy
recommendation
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED:
Approval of a proposed policy creating a format and numbering system for Genesee County Policies
BACKGROUND:
Historically, there has been no formal process for formatting or numbering policies that are adopted by the Board of County Commissioners. Departments would recommend and then keep adopted policies independent of other departments. There is currently no central repository for staff or the public to reference adopted policies of Genesee County.
DISCUSSION:
The attached draft policy creates a system of storing, formatting, and numbering policies that will be consistent across the county. Staff and the public will be able to view and locate policies for reference all working from the same understanding and platform.
IMPACT ON HUMAN RESOURCES:
There will be no impact on HR.
IMPACT ON BUDGET:
There will be no impact on the budget.
IMPACT ON FACILITIES:
There will be no impact on facilities.
IMPACT ON TECHNOLOGY:
IT may be utilized to update the county website to include a section dealing with policies of the county. The impact will be one-time.
CONFORMITY TO COUNTY PRIORITIES:
The adoption of this policy will help to realize the County's priority of an Inclusive, Collaborative Culture. By having policies up-to-date and readily accessible to staff and the public, we are meeting the goal of transparency of county government to our residents.
