Presentation From Mike Mulrooney <br /> <br />Mike Mulrooney was not present. <br /> <br />The City Council discussed the status of the hiring of a Community <br />Development Coordinator because it was one of the items which was to be <br />discussed with Mike Mulrooney. Discussion was held on the two applicants <br />which were interviewed by the City Council. Jeff Gongoll and Steve <br />Kaukola. The Council determined that in all fairness to both applicants <br />and because of the importance of the position being created in the City. <br />the position should be readvertised. The Council indicated they were not <br />comfortable making a decision based on the interviews of only two <br />applicants. The Council discussed the proposed salary for the position. <br />It was the consensus that the salary being offered was too low. and that <br />in order to attract an experienced professional in the field of Economic <br />Development. a higher salary should be offered. It was the consensus of <br />the Council to possibly offer as high as $35.000 for the position. <br />however. it was the Council's desire to discuss this with the City <br />Administrator prior to making a final decision on the salary. The Council <br />also discussed the title of the position. It was the consensus of the <br />Council to change the title to Economic Development Coordinator because <br />economic development was the major responsibility of the position and <br />because of the small amount of applicants received under the Community <br />Development Coordinator title. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The Council directed Staff to advertise state-wide for the position and to <br />also advertise in the League of Minnesota Cities Magazine. <br /> <br />9A.
