Hurm presented information requested by the Council on a proposed survey format and
introduced Judy Marshik of Research Quik who assisted him in describing three types of
surveys and answered questions. Hurm proposes that a consumer satisfaction survey be
distributed to the residents of Shorewood to determine the effectiveness of City operations
and programs.
Councilmembers discussed the proposed survey and requested additional definitive
information on surveys conducted by other cities and the benefits those cities derived from
the survey.
Hurm stated the objectives of this work session: 1) establish a preliminary levy 2) review and
discuss the new budget format, and 3) set dates for budget work sessions.
Following discussion of the proposed preliminary levy amount, Councilmembers agreed to
direct the staff to review the proposed budget with a view to reducing it to result in a zero
increase in the levy. Due to the September 15th deadline for establishment of the
preliminary levy, Stover and Daugherty agreed to review a revised budget and levy proposal
from the staff on Wednesday, September 9.
Councilmembers generally approved of the new budget format.
Gagne moved, Stover seconded to adjourn the work session at 10:25 p.m.
