Personnel Committee Update <br /> <br />Mayor Grant stated that all Councilmembers and City staff must complete a DiSC profile and <br />that all staff has yet to complete this profile. He said that Acting Public Works Director <br />Anderson is an applicant for the Public Works Director but noted that the promotion of City staff <br />is discussed by the Personnel Committee which then would make a recommendation to the City <br />Council. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden concurred, stating the Personnel Committee decided that upon <br />completion of the DiSC profile, the matter will be brought forward for further discussion by the <br />City Council. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes thanked Acting Public Works Director Anderson for his continued <br />patience throughout the process. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant provided an update regarding the City Administrator hiring process. He stated that <br />Harry Brull of Korn Ferry, the consultant firm hired by the City to oversee the process, is no <br />longer working for Korn Ferry. He said that City staff has not been able to contact Mr. Brull, who <br />has been paid for one-half of his contracted amount. He also said that it will need to be <br />determined if Korn Ferry will complete their agreement with the City or if another firm will be <br />hired for this process. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden stated the Personnel Committee is working through the process and may <br />be pursuing other options but is committed to moving forward in June with the City Administrator <br />recruitment process. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung stated the expectation would be that the entire City Council would <br />receive notification regarding a new representative. <br /> <br />On another note, Mayor Grant stated that the Personnel Policy had been updated and provided to <br />staff. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden said she requested an organizational chart for goal setting purposes <br />from all departments – Finance, Public Works, Administration and Community Development. <br /> <br /> <br />L.
