Identification and Prioritization of Policy Needs Sample Clauses

Identification and Prioritization of Policy Needs. A principal responsibility of the Strategic Policy and Coordination staff is to identify and prioritize policy needs for Green City, Clean Waters implementation. These needs may include addressing existing regulations or policies that conflict with the goals of the program, or more proactive actions to facilitate efficient achievement of program goals. Many of these policy needs will be identified through the liaison in the GSI Planning group whose responsibility it is to receive and communicate policy issues as they are discovered while building a project queue. This new liaison role represents a change in how the Water Department addresses these issues and may enhance the Water Department’s success in overcoming obstacles to implementing GSI projects. With the initial list of policy issues and needs in place, Strategic Policy and Coordination staff will interview key Water Department managers to affirm priorities and the continued relevance of issues identified during the demonstration phase. At the same time, Water Department staff will analyze relevant ordinances and laws to identify possible conflicts with implementation needs. This review will incorporate City ordinances, including the City Plumbing Code, Building Code and Water and Sewer Code, and State regulations such as the State Utility Law. Upon completion of this review, Strategic Policy and Coordination staff will collate the outstanding policy needs and categorize them according to whether they exist within the City’s own codes and procedures, or whether they originate with an outside organization. The Water Department will prioritize policy needs based primarily on how critical they are to effective implementation of the COA requirements. This list of policy needs will not remain static. As additional policy needs are discovered, they will be communicated to the Strategic Policy and Coordination staff for prioritization, evaluation and eventual resolution.
