Summary of Request

Good data results in better decision making, but only when the data is accurate, timely and properly presented. The IT Ad Hoc envisions web accessible charts of key indicators, with recommendations sourced from Department Heads, Supervisors and the Executive Office, prioritized by least cost to implement, avoiding chart formulas subject to criteria bias. Initial charts in various time periods should include spending year to date (YTD), business licenses issued, cannabis tax revenue, cannabis permits issued, cannabis permits blocked waiting for state approval, employee count by department, unfilled Heath Human Services Agency position count, building permit count, kilowatt hours of electricity by facility, natural gas / propane by facility, fleet diesel / gasoline gallonage by department, transient occupancy tax collected by district, vacation rental count, vacation rental Transit Occupancy Tax, ambulances in service, homeless housed in shelters, mental health patients transported out of county, children housed in juvenile hall and patients treated by our Behavior and Mental Health partners
