vity of <br /> <br />iver <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />Item #7. <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Mayor & City Council <br /> <br />Pat Klaers, City Ad~i~trator <br />July 20, 1998 ] ~/ <br /> <br />Personnel Issue <br /> <br />I have an administration secretarial position and issue to review with the <br />City Council under the Other Business agenda category. This issue is not in <br />any way related to the building secretary/receptionist position which the City <br />Council considered a few weeks ago. A recommendation on an alternative to <br />meet the building clerical needs will be presented to the City Council in the <br />near future. <br /> <br />The administrative secretary issue which I need to discuss with the City <br />Council is the resignation of Joni Pearson. Joni has accepted another <br />position. I have reviewed this resignation with a number of department <br />heads and we unanimously agreed that we should try to match the offer in <br />order to retain Joni's services. Joni is an exceptional employee, has versatile <br />skills, and it seems appropriate to try to retain her if financially reasonable. <br />Additionally, ff Joni did leave, a logical replacement for her would be Tina <br />Allard, the front desk secretary/receptionist, and this would require a pay <br />grade change (to the secretary level) and I would also be recommending a pay <br />adjustment. In this regard, we could either essentially match Joni's offer or <br />pay the same amount in elevating Tina to Joni's position. The increase is <br />about $1.20 per hour and it is recommended that we adjust Joni's wage to <br />$12.00 per hour and retain her services as the administrative secretary. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />It is recommended that the City Council adjust the pay of Administrative <br />Secretary Joni Pearson to $12.00 per hour effective immediately. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
