Action Requested
Approve, by motion, the hiring of Jolene Richter for the position of office assistant in our Fire and
Building Safety Department.
Background/Discussion
Nancy Anderson retired on June 30, 2015. Due to anticipated high internal interest in this fulltime
position, we chose to initiate an internal recruitment process to fill this position. Jolene Richter is
recommended for this position.
Ms. Richter began working for the city in December of last year as a part-time Secretary/Receptionist at
City Hall. Following Ms. Anderson’s retirement, Ms. Richter and our other part-time
Secretary/Receptionist have filled in on their off weeks in the Fire and Building Safety Department.
This position and the Secretary/Receptionist position are both in pay grade 3. Ms. Richter will remain at
her current pay, step B, and will become eligible for fulltime benefits effective September 1, 2015. Ms.
Richter will begin working in this position on Tuesday, August 18.
Financial Impact
This is a budgeted position.
