COUNCIL BUSINESS Case #3: Report from Personnel Committee Hulnan Resources Manager Reed reported the Personnel Committee met earlier this evening and discussed tile following cases: 1) Consider Authorization to Hire Two Full-Time, Temporary Building Inspectors Human Resources Manager Reed stated that the Community Development Director and the Building Official recently approached the City Administrator to discuss the volume of inspections and the need for additional Building Inspectors. She indicated the Building Official proposed that tile City bring the two unpaid Building Inspector interns on as full-time, temporary, paid Building inspectors at a rate of $15 per hour. She stated that if they are brought on as full- time, temporary employees, they would work through the end of this year and they would be responsible for residential inspections which would enable one of the City's full-time regular Building Inspectors to assist with plan review. She noted that these full-time, temporary positions would be funded with revenues from building permits, which have exceeded original projections. The Personnel Committee recommends authorizing staff to hire the two unpaid interns as full-time, temporary Building Inspectors at $15 per hour through the end of 2004. Motion by Councilmember Pearson, seconded by Councilmember Cook, to adopt Resolution #04-07-179 authorizing staff to hire the two unpaid interns as full-time, temporary Building Inspectors at $15 per hour through the end of 2004.
