STATEMENT OF MAYOR-ELECT JIM WHITE TO KENT CITY COUNCIL
ON REORGANIZATION OF CITY GOVERNMENT
I am appearing before you to present formally my re-
organization plan for the City of Kent. It has been
developed under the most trying of circumstances.
While nearly everyone agrees, or at least agreed at
one time, that we must reorganize city government,
no one, until now, has been willing to make the diffi-
cult decisions that accompany what must be done. As
the newly elected, full time mayor, those tough de-
cisions are mine to make. I understood that when I
campaigned for mayor, and I accept that. I will not
back away from the job that must be done.
I would like to take a moment to try to separate some
of the rhetoric from some of the realities of the sit-
uation so that citizens, city council members, city
employees, and the media can fully understand what is
happening. First, I did not intend that the reorgan-
ization of city government be done on the front page
of the newspaper. I worked on my plan for weeks with-
out the details of it leaking to the press. I gently,
but firmly, refused to share the details of it with the
page 2
reporter who covers the city. She is very good at what
she does, however, and eventually she pieced the story
together. In the ensuing firestorm of reaction, I was
surprised to learn that some city council members said
they were not aware of what I was planning to do. I
personally briefed each of you. Most of you said I de-
served the opportunity to be successful. Most of you
even indicated you would support the plan.
Basically, what has happened since the leak of the plan
to the newspaper is the same thing that has been happening
in Kent city government for the past several years. Each
department director wants to continue to be "mayor" of his
mini-city, and some council members want to influence or
dictate what will and will not be done in our city. That
is a legacy of our years with a part-time mayor. Each
department director has become accustomed to having his own
way in matters of policy, budget, and employment. And,
city council members, including me, have been willing to
step into the breach to serve as mayor as it suited our
purposes. One city council member has even told me that
I was to tell a department director that he still had a
job. I did not do that, and I will not do that.
page 3
Our city has a full time mayor now. The citizens have
elected me to serve as mayor. In two days, I am going to
take charge. When my management team is in place, we will
develop the budget, and I will bring it to the council for
its approval. And, for the first time in years, no depart-
ment director will come to the council for approval of
things that he could not get through the mayor. My
management team and I will develop policies that will apply
equally to all employees, and will be implemented in the
same way by each department. My management team will make
recommendations to me, and I, as mayor, will make decisions
based on their recommendations that are consistent with the
directions and guidelines that the city council has given
me. If my decisions bring heat, so be it. I asked for the
job, worked hard to get it, and I intend to administer the
city.
I asked every department director to resign. I have been
asked why. The answer is very simple. At the present
time, each person I asked to resign is operating
independently, with little regard to any centralized policy
making body. This is not their fault so much as it is a
symptom of what happens when there is no one in charge at
the top. Our mayor has been a part time mayor, available
before 7 : 00 A.M. and after 5 : 00 P.M. The directors became
page 4
totally independent, and learned to rely on their own
actions to achieve what they wanted. In the process the
departments became very turf conscious, and less and less
responsive to the citizens they were to serve. We need to
consolidate city government so that it is more efficient,
more responsive to citizen needs, less costly, and utilizes
fully the talents of the employees that form the backbone
of our city government.
After a thorough examination of the functions and programs
that we have in Kent, I realized I did not need these nine
positions. In fact, I could not make a case for more than
four. And that forms the basis of my reorganization plan.
We need to eliminate nine positions in upper management.
Only the Director of Parks and Recreation position needs to
be retained. The other nine positions would be replaced by
three: a Director of Operations, a Director of Public
Safety, and a Director of Community and Economic
Development.
Under my plan, the Director of Operations will be responsi-
ble for Finance, Human Resources, Information Services,
Fleet and Facilities, Support Services, Public
Information/Ombudsman/ Governmental Affairs, City Clerk,
and the Municipal Court. I have recruited a person who has
page 5
served with distinction in municipal government to serve as
my Director of Operations. This person not only has
outstanding credentials, but also has the strength and
intelligence to accept the task of consolidating these
functions of our government into a cohesive unit that can
build on the abilities of our city employees to make us all
successful. I envision that this person will develop a
division in each of these areas of responsibility, and
recommend a Division Manager for each. I will make the
final decision, but I have pledged to work with the
director in making the choice.
In most cases, I believe that the person who is currently
serving in the lead position in each of these divisions
will be the person who is named Division Manager. The
title of the position may change, and some duties may
change, but the personnel will stay, if they are willing.
As an example, I have asked Mayene Miller to serve as
Finance Division Manager. She has agreed.
The Director of Public Safety will be responsible for
Fire, Police, and Corrections. As in Operations, I
envision a division manager in each of those areas. For
this position, I have recruited a nationally known person,
who is an able administrator, and who has served in the
page 6
public safety arena of a major metropolitan area.
The Director of Community and Economic Development will
be responsible for Engineering, Economic Development/
Annexation/and Long Range Planning, Development
Services and Code Enforcement, Human Services, and Public
Works Operations. Division Managers will lead each of
these functions. Many of the current incumbents will be
asked to continue serving in their present capacity with a
simple title change for the purpose of conformity with the
other departments. I am not as far along with my
recruitment for this director. I have two Kent city
employees and several others under consideration.
As I said earlier, Parks and Recreation would be the
fourth department in my organization for the city. We
in Kent have made a commitment to a parks and recreation
system that serves not only our city, but also the region.
I am currently reviewing all the applications that were
received when the Parks Director resigned earlier in the
year. I expect to make a decision on this position soon.
When the director is in place, I will work with that person
to organize the department under the same division manager
concept utilized in the other three departments.
I could spend hours discussing all the things that were
page 7
considered before I arrived at this plan. Let me share
some of those. We are currently paying nearly $1, 0001000
in salaries and benefits for the nine positions that I have
proposed to eliminate. I want to replace those nine with
four positions at a cost of about $400, 000 .
Kent has spent over $800, 000 in overtime this year. That
is an almost unbelievable figure, but it is true. It is
also a graphic illustration of poor management at the very
top levels of management. One of these positions had a
budget for 1993 of $133 , 000 for overtime in one area of
responsibility. $227 , 000 was spent. I find it
incomprehensible that we are budgeting hundreds of
thousands of dollars for overtime.
Two of the positions that I propose to eliminate are
responsible for functions of government that require close
and constant communication. Yet there is little
communication within the functions. We have piles of
requests, complaints, and inquiries from our citizens that
have never been answered.
Training for our city employees does not exist, except in
the area of public safety. Routine requests from employees
to pursue education/training opportunities that would make
page 8
them even more valuable employees, are treated differently
department by department. Our labor negotiations are a
shambles. Our employee classification system is
antiquated, and non-responsive to employee needs . Our
permit system has failed utterly. One of the directors who
has been asked to resign, routinely goes to the city
council to get items approved for his budget that he is
unable to get from the mayor and administration. We
continually use outside consultants for projects without
even considering that city employees could possibly do the
work for which we are spending hundreds of thousands of
dollars. Each department operates independently of each
other, and of administration.
My plan addresses these things and others too numerous to
mention. Can I do it all at once? No. But my four
director management team is a good start.
The rest of my proposal that I bring before you tonight is
a severance plan for those whom I have asked to resign.
There have been all kinds of comments about how badly I am
treating these people. Believe me, I have not proposed
these actions without a great deal of thought. I have
proposed them in the best interests of the citizens who pay
the bills, the city employees who need strong, innovative
page 9
leadership, and you on the council who are going to be
faced with a citizenry that is not willing to pay as they
have in the past if government cannot get its spending
under control .
The process of putting together a severance plan has gone
forward at the same time that I knew I would be asking for
resignations . Even though most of these positions are
terminable at will, my proposal requests that I be author-
ized to negotiate with each of the employees affected by
my reorganization plan as deemed appropriate to effectuate
a smooth departure that releases the city from liability.
I want to make one other point. I plan to let attrition
take care of any employee reductions that become possible
as we continue to look for ways to streamline and
consolidate city government. I will not propose any
layoffs.
I ask you to consider this proposal carefully. The city
needs strong, centralized, responsive leadership. The
people have done their part by electing a full time mayor.
I have done my part by proposing a strong first step toward
accomplishing that goal. Now the city council needs to do
its part by providing these new positions so that the
page 10
process can go forward. We have a strong core of dedicated
city employees that is asking us to give them leadership,
direction, and a renewed sense of pride in what they do.
This plan will free up dollars that will allow us to take
some initiatives that will help us lift morale, and help
them do all they are capable of doing. I urge you to
pass this plan so the process can begin on January 3 , 1994 .
This plan, as proposed, will save the tax payers more than
1 .5 million dollars during my four year term. Other
streamlining, consolidation, and program elimination that I
am currently studying will save millions more. But none of
it is possible until we have a new, innovative, strong,
centralized management team in place.
will vote for this plan as a first step toward delivering
J ` to the citizens an efficient city government, that is
responsive, less costly, and truly the servants of the
Lu VV \ people. I urge you to join me.
