The consensus of the Council was to appoint the first candidate and hold the second applicant on <br /> file in the case another position opens. <br /> 2.02: Discussion Regarding the Economic Development Manager/Assistant City <br /> Administrator Position and Staffing/Department Restructures <br /> City Administrator Ulrich reviewed the staff report. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma asked how the Community Development Director's role would change. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that the Community Development Director would become the <br /> Acting City Administrator in the absence of the City Administrator. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma stated that he is concerned that the Community Development Director is <br /> already very busy, and this would add additional duties to that position. He was concerned that <br /> he would become overburdened. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that the administrative assistant for the Economic Development <br /> Manager would transition to the Community Development Department as well. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill noted that there is already a lot of collaboration <br /> between economic development and community development and therefore that would make <br /> sense to add the positions to community development. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma stated that he would like Community Development Director Gladhill to <br /> alert the Council if he does become overburdened. <br /> Councilmember Riley asked for clarity on the economic development positions that would <br /> transfer. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that the Economic Development Manager and the <br /> Administrative Assistant for that position would both report to community development. <br /> Councilmember Johns asked for additional information on the Human Resources Manager and <br /> the duties that would be added to that position. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that the Human Resources Manager would absorb the City <br /> Clerk role when the current City Clerk retires. <br /> Councilmember Johns asked if there would benefit in adding one full-time position over the two <br /> part-time positions proposed in the plan. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that although that would be an option, staff prefers the two part- <br /> time positions because there is more flexibility in the number of hours those employees can work <br /> and there are no benefits. He stated that sometimes employees prefer to work part-time over <br /> full-time as well. <br /> City Council Work Session /May 8,2018 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
