Heath Hansen also shared some proposed Board goals that he plans to discuss further with the Board and department heads. He refers to these goals as the “Three B System,” which stands for Baseline Government, Building Systems, and Basic Expectations.
Some key points of this system include the following: aligning county departments with those of other counties, improving efficiency within county departments, reviewing any excessive personnel or spending, pausing capital projects – unless there is an emergency, and implementing a system to review 28E agreements, policies, ordinances, and county land review.
Additionally, the system aims to establish an efficient method for communicating volunteer opportunities within the county, review basic expectations with the departments, and ensure that meetings are conducted in an orderly and respectful manner.
