Many city employees perform nearly all of their work via computer or phone. Having these employees commute to the office every single day is a waste of space, resources, carbon emissions, and stress.
Sitting at a desk is not a proxy for productivity, as anyone who has worked in an office can attest. If an employee is not productive enough that is issue between them and their manager, irrespective of whether the work was done at home or in office, and managers should be able to ascertain if all necessary tasks are getting done - if not, that manager is not doing their job.
