Councilmember Musgrove asked if it would be easier to track if there was one date. Mayor Pro Tem Riley suggested it be from the due date so she is doing one recruitment every year. Administrative Services Director Lasher replied that is a good idea. There was Council consensus for that idea. Administrative Services Director Lasher stated her question seven was answered because there was no interview. Councilmember Musgrove asked if point d is stricken. Administrative Services Director Lasher replied the City Clerk will send the applications to the Judge. She apologized, noting she is going on a 16-hour day and is starting to get bleary-eyed. Councilmember Musgrove commented the City Clerk sends a letter to the Judge asking to have an application reviewed, okay. Administrative Services Director Lasher asked if under Recommendations, they just keep number one. Councilmember Woestehoff replied he thought so. Councilmember Musgrove commented on her thought on number two,that because this is a policy it just states the policy, which would provide clarification for having it in there. She asked if she was understanding the purpose for having it in there. Councilmember Woestehoff replied he sees the point but it was also contradictory because section one says Council wants to be separate but section two implies that they do recommend a specific candidate. Councilmember Musgrove replied it would be a specific nature of a candidate, not a specific candidate. Councilmember Woestehoff replied he saw what she was saying. He stated he preferred leaving it at option one. Councilmember Howell asked about number three. Councilmember Woestehoff commented he didn't think it was necessarily relevant because it isn't limiting the field but it is also stating the City has some sort of other version of evaluation. He stated he preferred the hard distinction. City Council Work Session/May 10, 2022 Page 20 of 32
