Public Works Director:
Bret Weiss from WSB has reviewed the attached profile and his comments have been incorporated. Bret
also gave me a list of organizations and publications that we can advertise in for the position. I have
attached a copy of a salary survey for this position for your review so you are able to compare our wages
and benefits versus other communities. After review this evening and with the direction to proceed I will
begin placing ads in the appropriate publications.
Community Development Director
Only the deadline dates need to be changed on the profile and we are prepared to advertise upon

Assistant to the City Administrator
A key function of this position has been human resources. The other duties preformed have been to serve
as City Clerk and also assigned a variety of tasks as needed. I would like to change the responsibilities of
this position to have its primary focus be human resources and communications. The importance of
communications is something we have looked at in the past and by restructuring I believe we will be
able to improve in this area. I intend to make this person responsible for the cities web page, newsletter
and also serve as the person who can get appropriate information to the right sources to emphasis our
success. The duties of City Clerk, which Sue preformed, would then be given to Linda Jentink who has
been assisting Sue and performing many of these functions. Because Linda's job responsibility will be
increasing I will be reviewing the pay structure of her position and bring a recommendation at a future
meeting.
