<br />No. <br /> <br />'7- <br /> <br />AGENDA REPORT FOR CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />MEETING DATE: February 22,2007 <br /> <br />TO: The Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Study Session on Community Services Department <br />(John De Lorenzo; 428-7470) <br /> <br />A) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct a study session on the benefits provided <br />by the Community Services Department and on the needs, challenges and <br />issues faced by the department. <br /> <br />PURPOSE OF THE STUDY SESSION: The purpose of the study session is to <br />convey information to the City Council about (a) Community Services <br />Department activities and projects, (b) issues affecting the department and City, <br />and (c) to receive direction from the City Council on several budgetary and policy <br />issues. <br /> <br />B) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Community Services Department provides <br />diverse programs and facilities that improve the quality of life for Fairfield <br />residents.
