Monday May 21 Council Meeting: Management Employee Contracts and New Police Chief Recruitment
City Council also to discuss litigation in closed session –
The City Council is scheduled to approve management employee contracts for the City Clerk/Management Information Systems Manager, Director of Finance, Fire Chief, Chief of Police, Director of Public Works, and Director of Recreation on May 21. As with other recent contracts, lower cost pension plans will be established for new (but not existing) employees in these positions.
The Council will also consider spending up to $24,000 for recruiting a new Police Chief to replace Chief John Hunt, who has announced his retirement on June 22, 2012. Of three recruitment proposals received, the City Administrator recommends enlisting the highest cost proposal by Bob Murray & Associates due to their expertise and experience in recruiting for similar positions.
In closed session, pending and potential litigation regarding Blair Park will be considered, as well as undergrounding litigation against Robert Gray Associates and Harris & Associates.
The open session will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at 120 Vista Avenue on May 21, 2012. Click here for full agenda and staff reports.
