61. 7/29/71 The special meeting of the Village Council of Lino Lakes held on July 29, 1971 was called to order at 8:40 p.m. by Mayor L'Allier. Other members present were Messrs. Cardinal, Jaworski, Rosengren, and Bohjanen. Mr. L'Allier stated that the special meeting was called to discuss the place- ment of an advertisment for a full -time male employee. Mr. Rosengren stated he felt Roy Baeklin should be hired full time for now. Then, since he is now 62 years old, we will have the next three years before his retirement to break in someone else. There was general discussion as to the fact that we need a man now for roads. Later we will need someone in a more supervisory position; someone who can then handle sewer and water problems too. Mr. Cardinal said right now we need a utilities and maintenance man. Later the title and position can be changed. There is room for growth. It was decided that the first line of the advertisement should read: Wanted - utilities and. Maintenance Man_ It was further decided that no age limit was to be designated. There was some question as to whether the ad should limit the applicants to those within the village. It was felt that if the advertisement indicated the applicant must be familiar with the village road system that would be sufficient. Since the Council Members have the last say-so on the hiring, they felt it need not be specified. It was further decided that the advertisement should indicate the man must be familiar with the village road system. He would be expected to direct road repairs and maintenance and keen records. Mr. Bohjanen moved to place the advertisement. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal.
