• <br />AGENDA ITEM 3A <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Karlson <br />MEETING DATE: August 27, 2012 <br />TOPIC: Appointment of Accounts Payable /Payroll Technician <br />VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority (3/5) <br />INTRODUCTION <br />The Council is being asked to approve the appointment of Tracy Thoma for the position of <br />Accounts Payable/Payroll Technician. <br />BACKGROUND <br />In June staff began the search process to fill the Accounts Payable/Payroll Technician position, <br />which was vacated by Kim Fried when she resigned on June 8. The City received 109 <br />applications and interviewed 11 candidates from an excellent pool of applicants. Finance <br />Director Al Rolek conducted a second interview with two finalists and administered a test <br />involving spreadsheets and calculations. <br />As a result of this process, we were pleased to extend a conditional job offer to Tracy Thoma, <br />who we believe is the most qualified candidate. Ms. Thoma has nearly 20 years of experience <br />in accounting, which includes accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll processing, <br />general ledger reconciliation, and audit preparation. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Approve the appointment of Tracy Thoma to the position of Accounts Payable /Payroll <br />Technician. <br />
