8) Senior Planner <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Anderson, seconded by Councilmember Hendriksen, to upgrade the <br />City Planner position to a Senior Planner position and authorize staff to initiate the recruitment <br />process for a Senior Planner with the advertisement indicating that work experience will be <br />considered in place of education. <br /> <br />Further discussion: Councilmember Hendriksen inquired if the title of Senior Planner will <br />discourage someone from applying for the position if they don't have the schooling, but have the <br />experience. Assistant City Administrator Moore-Sykes replied that if someone is already doing <br />the work they would probably consider themselves a Senior Planner. Councilmember <br />Hendriksen emphasized that the ad should express that experience is important. Councilmember <br />Zimmerman inquired if a Senior Planner is needed for that work that needs to be done. Assistant <br />City Administrator Moore-Sykes replied yes, explaining that they will need to back-up the <br />Community Development Director. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Anderson, Hendriksen, and <br />Connolly.
