Wolfe, City Administrator ~ <br />Schawn P. Johnson, Assistant City Administrator9 <br />Sue Iverson, Finance Director <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />Appointment of Pang Silseth to the Accounting Clerk Position <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />Due to the retirement of Sandy Byl (Utility Billing Clerk) on June 7'\ 2007, department heads <br />began to evaluate different options for filling this position in March. After much discussion, the <br />City Administrator, Assistant City Administrator, and Finance Director determined that it would <br />be in the best of interest of the City to change the current three-quarter time Utility Billing Clerk <br />position to a full-time Accounting Clerk position. Department heads began the recruitment <br />process for a new Accounting Clerk position by posting the job opening internally. The deadline <br />for submitting a letter of interest for this position was March 8th. The City received one letter of <br />interest from Pang Silseth. Pang has been with the City of Arden Hills since December 2002. <br />She is currently one of the City's Office Support Specialists. Due to recent staff turnover in the <br />Finance Department, Pang has been asked to take on a number of financial related activities in <br />her daily work. Pang is a very detailed orientated individual and has done a wonderful job <br />assisting the Finance Department with payroll, accounts payable, and utility billing related <br />functions over the past year. Pang has also taken a few college level courses in the accounting <br />and finance field. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />Motion to Approve the Appointment of Pang Silseth as the City's new Accounting Clerk. <br />
