HOW TO USE THE GREEN SHEET ��
The GREEN SHEET has several PURPOSES:
1. to assist in routing documents and in securing required signatures
2. to brief the reviewers of documents on the impacts of approval
3. to help ensure that necessary supporting materials are prepared, and, if
required, attached.
Providing complete information under the listed headings enables reviewers to make
decisions on the documents and eliminates follow-up contacts that may delay execution.
The COST/BENEFIT, BUDGETARY AND PERSONNEL IMPACTS heading provides space to explain
the cost/benefit aspects of the decision. Costs and benefits related both to City
budget (General Fund and/or Special Funds) and to broader financial impacts (cost
to users, homeowners or other groups affected by the action) . The personnel impact
is a description of change or shift of Full-Time Eguivalent (FTE) positions.
If a CONTRACT amount is less than'$10,000, the Mayor's signature is nat required, _
if the department director signs.- A contract must always be first signed'by the '
outside agency befo�e routing through City offi�es:�-
