“Happy New Year! I hope everyone was able to enjoy some well-deserved time off with friends and family. It was so nice to see so many of you at last month's City holiday party. It was a great night filled with good food and good friends. 

 

As we turn our focus to 2023, I am excited to see what the year ahead has in store for our organization and Lake Forest. Even though we are only a few weeks into the New Year, we are already wrapping up the latest City Manager Conversations. Thank you to everyone who has participated to date. I very much value the engagement and feedback. As I mentioned previously, I will send a recap to the entire organization of those discussions and highlight some important themes that came out of the working groups. Please feel free to continue sharing comments or questions anonymously at any time via the feedback form.

 

Communication is an important priority for the organization in 2023. I look forward to sharing ongoing organizational priorities, as well as providing opportunities for continued feedback throughout the year. Keep an eye out for future opportunities to share your thoughts! 


Since there is no time like the present, included in this newsletter are two pulse surveys where your input is needed. The first survey is related to our effort to update performance evaluations. The second survey/poll seeks feedback on the 2023 holiday schedule. 


Take care,

 

Jason



We value your feedback! You will find these pulse surveys throughout the year. The information will help inform organizational decisions.
