He is wondering if this is a typo and is there a 1 reason it is being placed in the Star Tribune. 2 3 Community Development Director Ericson explained that the reason the ad is being placed in the 4 Star Tribune is because the paper is a more widely circulated daily publication and it would 5 receive more exposure. He further explained that historically they have always published the 6 City employment notices in Star Tribune in order to reach a wider base of candidates. 7 8 MOTION/SECOND Marty/Flaherty To waive the reading and approve Resolution 6559, 9 Authorizing the Posting of a Vacancy in Community Development Department and Approving 10 Supplemental Summer Staffing. 11 12 Ayes-5 Nays-0 Motion carried. 13 14 L.

He noted that in first paragraph they reference the expedited schedule 20 and they were aware of the expedited schedule from the beginning and this is the reason the City 21 decided to go with them. 22 23 Community Development Director Ericson acknowledged stating that this it is an issue of 24 coordinating several meetings between them and the DNR.

He stated that he would like further clarification. 34 35 Community Development Director Ericson stated that he is not aware of what delivery fees or 36 reimbursable expenses there may be in relationship to this request. He agreed that he should 37 have researched this prior to bringing it to Council. He suggested that the resolution be amended 38 to not exceed $6,500.00 or they could table action until they can get a better response on what the 39 reimbursables would run. 40 41 Mayor Marty stated that this relates somewhat to Item 8D that was pulled from the Council 42 agenda and asked when this would come back to Council for consideration. 43 44
