I don't In any way want to impede any employee from moving on to bigger and better things, but before we let him go, I thought the council should know what an asset he is to the City.

Waste water Treatment Facility Operator (No other maintenance worker has this license. * Tree Inspector License/Certificate. * Non-commercial Pesticide Applicator License (Turf, Ornamental and Forest). When the Parks Department was separated from the Maintenance Department, there was some reservation on the City Council. It was approved under the condition that it would not cost the city any more money. 1 supported this decision, but before we let Mike go, I though the Council should be aware of Mike's accomplishments and aware of the fact that he continuously strives to improve himself, and that has been and will continue to be an asset to the City. Mike has accomplished and/or has initiated the following: * Applied for, received and administered grant from DNR to groom and maintain the trails in Sunfish Lake Park. * Applied for grant application for cable equipment.
