Item No: 09A M0M S = �/ MW Meeting Date: November 13, 2017 Type of Business: Council Business Administrator review: City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Nyle Zikmund, Interim City Administrator Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8853, Hiring/Appointing Rayla Sue Ewald to position of Human Resources Technician Background Upon receiving the resignation of the Assistant City Administrator this past August the council took the opportunity to review the needs of the organization. The review and subsequent discussion led to a modest reorganization in changing the primary focus of the position to one of Human Resources. At their August 21, 2017 Council meeting, the council approved adoption of a Human Resource Technician job description and directed the Administrator to have the position pointed as part of the Market Rate Compensation Study. This was completed in early September. Interim City Administrator Zikmund was tasked with developing a posting, posting the position, and hiring the position. Discussion A posting based on the job description was accomplished and published for 10 working days on the Cities Web Site as well as the League of Minnesota Cities Web site. Ten applications were received by the deadline (two were received after). The applications were scored with 4 individuals being interviewed by the four department heads along with Interim City Administrator Zikmund. Recommendation The panel unanimously is recommending the Council offer/appoint Ms. Rayla Due Ewald to the position of Human Resource Technician starting November 20, 2017. Due to her 24 years of public/private Human Resource experience I am recommending she start at Level 4 in the 2017 compensation plan and move to Level 5 upon successful completion of her probation requirements. Respectfully submitted, Nyle Zikmund Interim City Administrator
