228 <br />COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 28, 1993 <br />from Brimeyer Group and the second from Public Management <br />Consultants. <br />The Ways and Means Committee met prior to the Council meeting to <br />prepare a recommendation to the City Council on this matter. <br />Council Member Elliott explained that they had looked at the good <br />points of each of the two (2) proposals submitted and are <br />recommending that Public Management Consultants be hired by the <br />City Council. She noted that this company will look within the <br />rank and file as well as through out the country for a candidate. <br />Physiological testing is included in their fee. <br />Council Member Elliott moved to approve Public Management <br />Consultants as the firm to search for the next Lino Lakes Chief <br />of Police. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion <br />carried unanimously. <br />Council Member Neal asked how soon the new Police Chief would be <br />on the job. Mr. Schumacher said about six (6) to eight (8) <br />weeks. <br />CONSIDERATION OF BUILDING INSPECTIONS DEPARTMENT STAFFING NEEDS <br />Mr. Schumacher explained that the current rate of 400 plus new <br />home building permits per year has stretched the current building <br />inspections department of one and one half (1 1/2) employees to <br />its limit. He recommended that the current part-time employee, <br />Tom Jackson be hired on a full time basis. <br />Mayor Reinert noted that the need for additional inspections is <br />critical. He also explained that the revenues from building <br />permits have increased so as to cover the additional salary for <br />the full-time position. <br />Council Member Neal wondered if the addition of Mr. Jackson as a <br />full-time employee was enough. He noted the problems concerning <br />the altering of grades in the new subdivisions which have caused <br />some flooding problems. <br />Council Member Neal moved to hire Mr. Jackson on a full-time <br />basis effective July 1, 1993 with a review of his status after <br />the six (6) month probationary period. Council Member Elliott <br />seconded the motion. Mr. Schumacher noted that Mr. Jackson is in <br />the process of gaining his certification by going to school in <br />the evenings. <br />Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously. <br />CONSIDERATION OF FILLING VACANCY ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT <br />PAGE 14 <br />
