To better understand the community’s needs, the City of Saline is asking for citizen response to a brief survey regarding the City’s search for a permanent City Manager.
“This survey will assist City Council, our consultant and hiring committee pinpoint specific characteristics and attributes we’d like our future City Manager to possess,” said Mayor Brian Marl. “We appreciate and value the input of our community and welcome all those who live or work in the City to complete the survey.”
Survey questions focus on identifying desired leadership qualities, gathering feedback on specific actions the City Manager should take to promote a cohesive team and selecting which aspects of organizational and governmental culture are important to respondents.
To allow ample time for individuals to enter their submissions, the survey will open on Wednesday, March 26 and will remain open for one week, closing on Wednesday, April 2. The survey is relatively short, just five questions, and should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete.

No identifying personal information will be collected with this survey. If you have any questions about the survey, please reach out to Mayor Marl at bmarl@cityofsaline.org.
Moderate rain, with a high of 50 and low of 22 degrees. Overcast for the morning, light freezing rain for the afternoon, cloudy in the evening, patchy rain nearby overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
