2. Discussion and possible action on dual recruitment for the following positions: Airport Manager (FT); Ramp Agent (PT)

Alderperson Molski stated that based on the discussion held earlier during the Finance Committee meeting, she moved to approve the dual recruitment for the positions of Airport Manager (FT) and Ramp Agent (PT), Alderman Moore seconded. Discussion ensued.

Alderman Wiza apologized for missing the discussion held at the Finance Committee but had some questions related to the request. He asked if the current motion would be in affect creating two additional positions.

Mayor Halverson replied that the intent of the request was to enable the City to move forward with recruitment for the positions at the same time as doing an RFP for contract to provide airport management. It is hoped that this parallel process will create the largest applicant pool possible for the City. If it is determined that it is in the best interest of the City to have City employees performing the work, then such a request would come back to the Board of Public Works as well at the Personnel Committee.
Ayes all, nays none. Motion carried.
