Councilmember Heineman replied that would limit Mr. Korin to cutting taxes but he felt Mr. Korin <br /> had creative ways to do a lot of things so he wasn't supportive of Councilmember Woestehoff's <br /> suggestion. He asked Mayor Kuzma why he suggested starting the hiring process over. <br /> Mayor Kuzma replied the Council was at an impasse and couldn't agree on a candidate so starting <br /> over was a good option. <br /> Councilmember Heineman replied that perhaps compromise was the solution that wouldn't cost <br /> any more money, would put someone in place sooner, and would please everyone. <br /> Mayor Kuzma replied he didn't think Mr. Korin would be a good mentor for Mr. Hagen. <br /> Councilmember Heineman replied they should start the process over again. <br /> Mayor Pro Tem Riley asked for a vote on hiring Mr. Hagen as the City Administrator and creating <br /> a part-time position for Mr. Korin at City Council's direction as a mentor role. <br /> There was no support for that option. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Heineman, second by Mayor Kuzma, to send Mr. Hagen back for a <br /> second evaluation. <br /> Further Discussion: <br /> Councilmember Heineman stated he would support putting the hiring process on hold until Mr. <br /> Hagen retakes the evaluation and then resume talks afterwards. Councilmember Howell and <br /> Councilmember Musgrove both stated they didn't support that option and because they didn't feel <br /> there would be a different outcome. Mayor Pro Tem Riley stated starting the process over will put <br /> the hiring further out. Councilmember Specht clarified comments that his support of Mr. Korin <br /> was not just about tax cuts by giving an example of differing responses to the interview question <br /> about improvements for the future of the City. <br /> A roll call vote was performed: <br /> Councilmember Howell nay <br /> Councilmember Musgrove nay <br /> Councilmember Specht nay <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff aye <br /> Councilmember Riley aye <br /> Mayor Kuzma aye <br /> Councilmember Heineman aye <br /> Motion carried. <br /> Councilmember Specht asked about time frame. <br /> City Council Special Work Session/May 5, 2022 <br /> Page 6 of 7 <br />
