Consideration to Hire Full Time Maintenance / Custodial Position <br /> <br />Acting City Manager Ulrich advised Staff advertised for and received seven applications for this <br />position, and interviews were conducted with all of the applicants. Staff found John Hughes as <br />being the most qualified for the position and recommends he be offered the position. This would <br />be at the outlined salary scale with the following additional conditions: <br /> <br /> After one year the step increases would be on a 5% basis. <br /> The successful applicant would start out at 85% of step one, which is $12.50/hour, and based <br />on satisfactory performance receive a 5% increase, as is normal, through a probationary <br />period. <br /> The position would become part of the Public Works Unit with its own job description and <br />scale. <br /> Mr. Hughes would be subject to a pre-employment physical and drug test. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Marty. To Approve as recommended by Staff. <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney stated he does not believe this should be a full time position as he has <br />stated previously. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin stated if they are going to build a $6.5 million dollar building, it will be <br />necessary to make sure it is kept up. He suggested the Council would be remiss in not having <br />someone take care of it on this basis. <br /> <br /> Ayes - 4 Nays – 1 (Stigney) Motion carried. <br /> <br />Mayor Coughlin requested Acting City Manager Ulrich to contact Mr. Hughes and inform him <br />of the Council's decision. <br /> <br />11.
