REPLACEMENT OF RETIRED FIRE FIGHTER
(P-100-060 & A-050-140)
Mayor Moss noted that a fire fighter retiring within the last
couple weeks further aggravated the shortage of personnel in the
Fire Department. He recalled that during budget proceedings,
Council established a policy not to cut into the Fire
Department's manpower, and that has run afoul of Council's
decision to implement a hiring freeze in general fund
departments. He suggested that the City Manager be directed to
fill the position vacated by the retired fire fighter and
establish a policy to continue to fill any positions that may
become vacant; or in other words, hold the manpower pool static
in the Fire Department.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Dahl, seconded by Council Member
Anderson, authorizing the City Manager to fill the position in
the Fire Department vacated by the retired fire fighter and
establish a policy to maintain the manpower pool in the Fire
Department in a static state.
Voting was as follows:
Ayes: Council Members - Anderson, Dahl, Kehoe and Moss
Noes: Council Members - None
Absent: Council Members - Arness
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, at the hour of 6:10 p.m., Mayor
Moss declared the meeting adjourned.
