<br />rCI ---'\) <br />( ); <br />tl1< <br /> <br />ITEM #3.4. <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />River TO: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Patrick D. Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />April 5, 1999 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Hiring Liquor <br />Store Manager <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Per direction of the City Council, I have met with the top candidate for the <br />Liquor Store Manager position. We have discussed terms and conditions of <br />employment. I have made him what I would classify as a normal offer for a <br />department head level position. The applicant is currently in a very good <br />position with advancement opportunities in the near future. He indicated <br />that he would like to make a quick decision on this offer in order to not keep <br />anyone "hanging" on this issue. I encouraged him to take his time, to think <br />about it over the weekend, and get back to me on Monday. I will have a <br />verbal update on this job offer for the council on Monday evening. <br /> <br />The update on the Director of Planning position is not as positive. The <br />applicant of choice has declined the position for a variety of reasons, but we <br />believe mainly due to family ties in the state where he works. We will be <br />contacting him again after the holiday weekend to see if he is still sure about <br />his decision, or maybe having second thoughts about the Elk River <br />opportunity. If the answer is still no, we will be going back into the pool of <br />applicants to look at another couple of candidates to interview. I should <br />know more about the status of this position on Monday. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330. TDD & Phone: (612) 441-7420 .
