APPROVE PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND SALARY ADJUSTMENT FOR VIDEO TECHNICIAN (CINDRA SCHMIDT) Cindra Schmidt was hired by the City in July 2003 as the City's new video technician.

Cindra has done an excellent job in being on time and enhancing the quality of the video production of both City Council and Planning Commission meetings. Cindra has been working with City staff and video consultant to improve the quality of the production and play back of public meetings. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the perform- ance review and salary adjustment from $10 to $11/hr for Cindra Schmidt.
