Ms. Doglio’s background includes accountant work for municipalities in Illinois. <br />We felt that she would be a great fit for our accountant position rather than for the positions we had <br />advertised.

She also worked <br />for Easter Seals in accounts payable and as the senior accountant. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in <br />Accounting. <br /> <br />Ms. Doglio will start at step A of pay grade 7E. All pay and benefits will be consistent with city policy. <br /> <br />Financial Impact <br />This is a budgeted position. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> None <br /> <br /> <br />The Elk River Vision <br />A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional <br />service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity <br />
