If you’re a planner in Ontario responsible for growth targets and city planning to meet housing demands, there’s one crucial step you need to take. It’s really not about procuring new software, deploying AI, or succumbing to private sector promises of solutions that will burden your budgets with additional costs. The key is to get your data house in order. You’re sitting on a wealth of data, and you need to find the best person in your organization who understands how to work with data and integrate them into your team. Whether it’s through a secondment or a new temporary position or full time role, planners need data professionals—ideally with an understanding of location data. These professionals can mine the information in your existing systems to provide clarity, insight, and actionable results. Come join these data professionals on September 20th in Brantford Ontario and see what is possible! https://lnkd.in/eGWRmHHU

Today we start a five part series on the challenges that Main Street directors face in their daily work. For future reference, if you see an image of someone with a headache the rest of the week, be sure to stop and read! We'd also love to hear from you about your own challenges! Part 1 is about information. Information is everywhere. You want it from people, and people want it from you. When someone in the community asks you a question, how do you find the answer? A spreadsheet? An email? Connecting them with another person? All of the above? Time consuming, right? When do you get the time to do the work you're actually hired to do? As a main street director, you already serve a role that includes many different hats, and you shouldn't be expected to be the town database as well. How about getting information? How do you maintain your relationships with local businesses and property owners? If you have to recall a conversation from six months ago, how hard is it to find the information you're looking for? We won't be answering these questions today. We'll follow up on Friday with opportunities to level up your current methods for gathering and sharing information. #mainstreet #knowledgebase #dropsomeknowledge

Hello all! Sharing... ***PRESS RELEASE*** SAN FRANCISCO GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY INITIATIVE SPEEDS UP HIRING, HELPS FILL VACANCIES Initiative run by City Administrator, Controller and Department of Human Resources also delivers improvements in speeding up contracting and financial operations   San Francisco, CA – A government efficiency operation launched by Mayor London N. Breed and led by the Office of the City Administrator, Controller, and Department of Human Resources (DHR) has led to significant improvements in hiring times over the last year and a half. In addition, this operation has improved contracting and financial operations, making City government more efficient and effective in delivering services for residents.    The Government Operations Recovery Initiative (Gov Ops) Team consists of staff from the City Administrator, Controller and DHR working year-round on targeted initiatives to improve efficiencies.    Hiring initiatives by Gov Ops have led to improvements compared to last year: Nearly 50% increase in applicants for vacant City positions More than 25% increase in hires made  25% decrease in time to fill vacant positions Nearly 30% decrease in the vacancy rate  This initiative has also led to a 50% decrease in the time needed for the Office of Contract Administration to review and approve departmental contracts for professional services, as well as other efficiency improvements in contracting and financial operations. In addition, the initiative has consolidated and provided greater transparency into future contracting opportunities for businesses to help them plan ahead.    "Making government more efficient and effective requires constant focus and continued effort, often in areas that don’t get a lot of attention,” said Mayor London Breed. “We are working every day to overcome bureaucratic obstacles to deliver services faster and more reliably. I want to thank our City Administrator, Controller and Director of Human Resources, who have been leading these efforts. Thanks to their work and that of our City Departments, we are seeing improvements to our hiring, contracting and government operations, which means better service for our residents, workers and businesses.”     “Over the last year, the Government Operations team has been working to identify and make changes to improve how we hire, buy goods and services and make payments,” said City Administrator Carmen Chu. “While these efforts may sound boring, they are core operational processes that are pain points for every department and have a huge cumulative impact on how we deliver public services. Each positive change, no matter how small, makes a difference—filling core vacancies faster, having the supplies and equipment you need to work, and making sure our vendors and employees are paid or reimbursed in a timely matter all adds up.”
