MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council <br />Clerk -Administrator Pauley <br />FROM: Public Works Foreman Ulrich��( <br />DATE: December 12, 1988 <br />SUBJECT: HIRING OF PUBLIC WORKS MAINTENANCE PERSON <br />On December 6 and 7, 1988, Police Chief Ramacher, Public Works <br />Director Minetor and myself interviewed eight prospective <br />candidates out of approximately 170 applications for the position <br />of Public Works Maintenance Person. Although all eight of these <br />candidates were perceived as qualified to fill this position, two <br />of them inparticular were stand -outs in our opinion. The first <br />being Daniel K. Rundell who had workers for the Public Works <br />Department in Andover for approximately 6 months and is now <br />working for a private contractor, and the second being Jaffrey <br />C. Wienke, Sr. who has worked construction for a St. Paul firm <br />and is currently working for the City of St. Paul Public Wons <br />Department. Although both of these individuals intervi.ewed well, <br />reference checks favor the appointment of Jeffrey Wienke over <br />Daniel Rundell. Mr. Wienke has worked for the City of St. Paul <br />from April of 1986 to present. I received a very good <br />recommendation from his immediate supervisor for all aspects of <br />public works. Mr. Rundell's reference check was favorable, <br />however, his experience ir. snow plowing and equipment operation <br />was limited. <br />Based or all information available, my recommendation is %hat <br />Jeffery C. Wienke, Sr. be offered the position of Public Works <br />Maintenance person starting at the Maintenance II wage of $12.46 <br />per hour. Mr. Wienke will be hired at the Maintenance II <br />level based on his previous experience.' I believe his <br />appointment to this position would bring the City a well-rounded <br />person with experience and an attitude that would be welcomed to <br />our environment. <br />MU/BAC <br />11, <br />
