CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION November 28, 2016 APPROVED 46 47 Item 4D — Promotion to Deputy Director — Police Division — Public Safety Director 48 Swenson reviewed his recommendation to promote Kyle Leibel to the open position. 49 The recommendation is based on the results of a thorough promotional process. Mayor 50 Reinert asked about the difference in compensation and Chief Swenson explained that 51 this individual would move to Step 5 based on coming from the Police Sergeant's union 52 scale and also this will be a salaried position. Council Member Rafferty remarked that it 53 would be nice to see the individual present for introduction and any questions. Chief 54 Swenson noted that Kyle will be coming in for a ceremony after this is approved. Mayor 55 Reinert suggested changing that procedure because sometime there could be a request to 56 approve an individual the council doesn't know; not the case here, but it could be. This 57 is a high level position so he thinks the council would benefit from that opportunity. The 58 council concurred that, in this case, they are comfortable moving forward. 59 60 Item 4E — Donation of Seized Property — Public Safety Director Swenson explained that 61 staff requests authorization to donate a group of bicycles that are forfeited and are not 62 needed. The City Code allows this type of donation. The bikes would be donated to an 63 organization the department has worked with before. 64 65 Item 6A —Approving Payment for 2016 Mill and Overlay Project— City Engineer Hankee 66 reviewed the request to make final payment on this project. She explained the areas 67 included in the project. Staff is comfortable making the final payment. 68 69 The meeting was adjourned at 6:25 p.m. 70 71 These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on 72 December 12, 2016. 73 74 75 77 J is e Bartell, ty C 78 2
