Retirement Challenge: The Transitional Manager
If your career has been a series of management posts
between two and five years in tenure, it is likely you have
not vested in any city or county retirement system. Studies
also show that generation X and millennials will have multiple jobs of shorter duration throughout their careers. Is
it possible to build a retirement portfolio without a longer
term in one government? What can a professional do to
ensure building the right combination of savings, deferred
income and other plans to meet his or her retirement
needs?

Florida Public Records Law - A Florida Business Watch
Session
A special session for sponsors and exhibitors.
Do you know your obligations under Florida’s open records
laws? Government contractors are subject to open records
laws in many of the same ways as your government customers. And some companies have been targeted by bad actors,
which force violations of the law and then hit your firms with
hefty legal fees. Two Master Municipal Clerks will teach you
the ins and outs of the law and how to protect yourself and
your firm from these scammers. (Conference attendees will be
in session, so you won’t miss any quality booth time.)

Unlocking the Value of Your Financial Data:
A Case Study of Oakland Park
The annual budget document is a city or county’s most
important communications tool, reflecting the financial
policy decisions, operational goals and civic priorities
that dictate its activity each year. But providing complex,
multidimensional budget information in an accessible,
easy-to-understand format is challenging for finance
leaders. In this interactive session, the audience will
become the stakeholders and learn how Oakland Park
unlocked the value of its financial data, improved financial
transparency, and now provides access to the financial
information that staff, elected officials and citizens need,
when they need it.
Speakers: Ryan Arnett, Director, OpenGov; and Andrew
Thompson, Director of Financial Services, Oakland Park
Addresses ICMA Practice Areas 10-Budgeting; and
11-Financial Analysis
11:00 a.m. - 12:15 p.m.
Java Sea 2
The 21st Century Police Chief: Leading at the
Speed of Change
This session will provide attendees with a unique perspective of the new police leader. Based largely upon a decade
of economic challenges, a dynamic new millennial workforce
and an increasingly diverse (and skeptical) customer demographic, this session will make the case for contemporary police
leaders to challenge the way they think about the delivery of
law enforcement services. The leadership and management
of today’s police work force will be a focus of the presentation,
with a special emphasis on the relationship between police and
the city/county executive - a relationship more important today
than ever before. The session will also review several issues
facing public safety and communities over the next 10 years,
including retention of the millennial work force, technology
challenges and right-to-privacy issues. Get ready for a fast but
thought-provoking look at what lies ahead for your law enforcement agency in the next decade.
Speaker: Butch Arenal, Chief of Police, Punta Gorda; 2nd Vice
President, Florida Police Chiefs Association

Hospitality Suite 3306 (Third Floor - Tower 3)
Financial Planning Appointments
Planning for transition does not just begin in the weeks or
months leading up to separation. It begins before your first
day on the job with the first draft of your employment agreement. A period of transition can be a challenging time for
a manager, both emotionally and financially. The provisions
in your employment agreement will often determine how
prepared you are to bridge the gap to your next position.
However, this is not a topic exclusive to managers. As employment agreements become increasingly common with assistant
managers and department heads, not being familiar with the
key components of these agreements and what they mean for
you, your employees and your government is not an option.
Please join us for this informative session on employment
agreements, the provisions you need to be looking at, and
the environment surrounding them.
Consultants from ICMA-RC will be providing individual
financial planning sessions on Thursday and Friday. If you
have not already signed up for an appointment, please
check at the FCCMA registration desk for availability.
Speakers: James Bennett, City Manager, Presque Isle, Maine;

PLANting a Sustainable Network for Future Growth
with Multimodal Transit
If cities were trees, then our transportation systems are
the root networks by which we nourish the lives of our
neighborhoods. Effective management of these networks
means the difference between sustainable and fiscally
responsible growth versus congestion and expensive
infrastructure. Join us for a discussion of the efforts of the
City of Doral to move away from building for cars, and
moving towards planning for a multimodal community.
Speakers: Rita Carbonell, Transportation Engineer, Doral;
and Joseph M. Corradino, AICP, President, The Corradino

As local governments continue to deal with vacant property, foreclosures and revitalization of both neighborhoods

Some communities are also receiving bank properties
and forming joint ventures to redevelop those distressed
buildings. Local governments are using these tools to address blight and restore neighborhoods. Learn how these
ordinances and programs might assist your jurisdiction.

Health Care Costs at BELOW 2010 Levels? How Did
Palm Coast Do THAT??
Tired of double-digit hikes in health insurance each year,
the City of Palm Coast said “enough is enough!” and
crushed the mold to create a new model no one thought
remotely possible. Partnering with an already existing local clinic, the city fixed expenses, established a clinic with
no management fees and pass-through costs, and is now
able to provide most routine and preventative health care
at ZERO cost to employees and their dependents. How
is this possible? Share the journey to this unique solution
and you can also leap off the health care merry-go-round,
rein in costs and provide better benefits to your staff.
