In early 1999, the information technology functions were moved to the Department of Financial Services. A proposal to create a department devoted solely to information technology was disc~ssed at the May 6, 2000 City Council Retreat. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff 59eks Council support of a bill for an ordinance amending Trtle 1 of the Englewood Mur ·ci pal Code regarding the organization of City Departments . The ordinance would create a new department in the organization to be known as "Information Technology." The ordinance would also re-name the "Department of Admin istrative Services · to the "Department of Finance and Administrative Serv ices· to better reflect the department's functions . BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED In order to keep up with the changing pace of technology, staff feels It is necessary to have the City's Information Technology functions concentrated in one department. Information technology currently falls under the jurisdiction of the Department of Financial Services . The proposed ordinance calls for the creation of a new department that encompasses information technology and telecommunications functions. The department will be respons ible for maintaining the City's computers, network systems, and telephone services . Fl~ANCIAL IMPACT There are no financial impacts foreseen as a result of th is ordinance . LIST OF ATTAC h .~ENTS Proposed Bill for an Ord inance
