Item No: 09C Meeting Date: 08/22/05 Type of Business: CA City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Kurt Ulrich, City Administrator Item Title/Subject: Resolution 6611, Approving an Agreement with Ms. Susan Huston to Provide Interim Cable Coordination Services Background Mr. Ken Gammell resigned as City Cable Coordinator effective August 15, 2005. Prior to his leaving, he recommended that Ms. Susan Huston be retained as an interim coordinator until the position is hired. The hiring process for a permanent part-time employee will take about 45-60 days. Prior to the hiring of Ken Gammell, Ms. Huston served as the interim cable coordinator on a contract basis. The terms of the proposed contract are the same as before, where the City would pay $20 per hour for her services with no benefits. Discussion Attached is Resolution 6611 approving an agreement with Ms. Susan Huston to provide interim cable coordination services for the City until a person is hired for the position as a regular part-time employee. The City will pay the contract amount of $20 per hour for services to schedule and coordinate cable production and programming during this period. The anticipated number of hours for the contract is 10-15 hours per week, but in no event shall hours worked be in excess of 20 hours per week without prior written authorization by the City Administrator. To exceed 20 hours would require City Council approval. As a contract employee, Ms. Huston will be responsible for all her benefits and expenses, and will need to submit an invoice to the City for services. Recommendation Staff recommends that the Council approve Resolution 6611 approving an agreement with Ms. Susan Huston to provide interim cable coordination services as indicated.
