Mounds View City Council February 24, 2003 <br />Regular Meeting Page 8 <br />Interim City Administrator Ericson indicated he was told by New Brighton that they could not <br />give the matter top priority but could devote the time necessary to get the job done. He then said <br />that he had spoken to the City Manager of New Brighton and there would be a time crunch when <br />the applications are received to sort through them and the time needed is dependent upon the <br />number of applications received. <br />Council Member Marty indicated he would like to post the job with the criteria he submitted to <br />the paper. <br />Mayor Linke asked what the requirements of Council are for an Administrator. <br />Council Member Marty recommended using the job description that was used a few years ago. <br />Council Member Stigney indicated the posting should be available from the last time. <br />Mayor Linke acknowledged the application of Mr. Ericson for the position and thanked him for <br />his interest. <br />Mayor Linke indicated he would like to authorize First Site Staffing to work with Staff in <br />preparing information for Council review and approval to move this process along. <br />• Council Member Stigney asked Staff to verify the position of New Brighton as to what they are <br />willing to provide for the City and the timeline in which they can provide the services. He also <br />asked who would do the pointing for the position and whether First Site Staffing was qualified to <br />point for public positions. <br />Interim City Administrator Ericson indicated First Site Staffing has had experience with <br />government hiring but said he would verify that information as well as provide the information <br />from two years ago to them. <br />Interim City Administrator Ericson indicated that New Brighton was not able to give a very clear <br />indication of the amount of time they could devote to the project due to the variables involved <br />such as the number of applications received and what the City wants them to do, He then said <br />that there is approximately a $5.00 difference in the hourly rate of New Brighton and First Site <br />Staffing. <br />Council Member Stigney indicated that outside vendors have a tendency to "stick it to cities" <br />with other costs and he would not think that New Brighton would do that. <br />Interim City Administrator Ericson indicated it was his understanding that First Site Staffing has <br />placed for governmental or public agencies. He then offered to obtain that information and noted <br />the representative had offered to come to a Council meeting. <br /> <br />
