All indications are that Chief <br />Gustafson has performed satisfactorily during the first six months in his position. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Personnel Committee is as follows: (1) The Police Chief should have a pager <br />for emergencies. (2) There should be training for the Chief and the Department on handling the <br />mentally handicapped. (3) The Chief should review the use of volunteers and work with the <br />snowmobile club. (4) The Chief should be more proactive in the community. (5) There should <br />be a follow-up witl~ Crime Watch - maybe work with volunteers to watch the parks, etc. (6) The <br />Chief should be working closely with animal control. (7) The Department will be growing - the <br />Chief needs to work with it and be a good manager. <br /> <br />Case #2: Approve Revised Job Description for Public Safety Aide <br /> <br />The Personnel Committee reviewed the revised job description for the Public Safety Aide and <br />suggested that staff check on classes, such as the baby-sitting class, to make sure that we are not <br />duplicating classes offered by others in the community. It was also stated that vehicle <br />maintenance, etc. should not be a priority. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Committee was to recommend that City Council approve the revised job <br />description of the Public Safety Aide and that Council also authorize staff to advertise the <br />position with the intent of having the person hired to begin work after January 1, 1998. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Motion by Mayor Gamec and seconded by Councilmember Haas Steffen to adjourn the meeting. <br /> <br />Personnel Committee/November I0, 1997 <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
