City workforce performance management and job descriptions
Summary
The old performance pilot flopped — barely anyone used it — and the city still lacks formal job descriptions for many roles. A classification and compensation study is coming but will take 18–24 months and won't be done in time for the next budget.

Impact analysis
The study will take 18–24 months and won't inform the upcoming budget; cost figures weren't given.
City employees and managers get clearer expectations, and taxpayers get better accountability for positions and pay.
