<br />WS – Item 1 <br /> <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item 1 <br /> <br /> <br />Date: June 26, 2023 <br /> <br />To: City Council <br /> <br />From: John Swenson, Public Safety Director <br /> <br />Re: Temporary Addition of Part-Time Community Service Officer <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />The Public Safety Department is authorized to have three (3) part-time Community <br />Service Officers (CSO) as approved in the 2023 budget. Due to unique staffing <br />challenges, staff is requesting that we temporarily increase our CSO staffing to four (4) <br />part-time CSOs through October 7, 2023. <br /> <br />This increase to 4 CSOs will ensure that we have experienced CSOs on staff to train our <br />newest CSO, which we anticipate seeking Council approval to hire at the July 10th <br />Council Meeting. <br /> <br />There will not be additional funding requested for this temporary increase to 4 CSOs. <br />Staff proposes that available funds in 2023 Police Personnel budget be used for <br />temporary CSO addition. <br /> <br />Staff is seeking Council direction. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />None
