CITY OF LAKEVILLE POLICY MANUAL AMENDMENT
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the amendment to
the Performance Evaluation policy.
Passage of this motion will promote a more consistent performance evaluation process.
Overview
The current policy for performance evaluations addresses regular evaluations for employees
until they achieve the top step of the relevant pay grade. Many of the departments
continued to provide regular appraisals after that on an annual basis, but not all.
City Administrator Miller has asked all departments – both union and non-union – to
complete annual appraisals. This amendment formalizes that discussion in writing.
Primary Issues to Consider
• None.
Supporting Information
• Amended Policy

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
Policy 6.28
1) POLICY
a) Supervisors will conduct a performance evaluation for each of the employees whom
they directly supervise. The first performance evaluation will occur three (3) months
after the employee begins employment and again at six (6) months and at the
completion of the employee’s twelve (12) month probationary period.
b) After completion of the probationary period, performance evaluations are submitted
annually by the supervisor on the employee’s employment anniversary date, until the
employee has reached the top step of the relevant pay grade. Once the employee
achieves the top step, performance evaluations will continue to be completed at the
end of each calendar year.
c) Performance evaluations may be submitted more frequently if an employee’s
performance is not satisfactory.
d) All evaluations will be discussed with the employee before submission to Human
Resources to be placed in the employee’s personnel file.
e) The quality of an employee’s performance will be considered in personnel decisions
such as promotions, transfers, demotions and terminations.
