DATE: November 29, 2010 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator 12 61.1-fr Sue Iverson, Finance Director/Treasurer SUBJECT: Approval of the Finance Analyst Position Background On October 29, 2010, and November 10, 2010, the Personnel Committee met to discuss the addition of a Finance Analyst position in the Finance Department. As a result of these meetings, the Personnel Committee recommended the position be brought to the November 15 City Council worksession to be discussed with the full City Council. At the City Council's worksession on November 15 the City Council reviewed and discussed this position and directed staff to put it on the November 29, 2010, City Council Meeting Agenda. Current Discussion �iRDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM The current Finance Intern, Kyle Howard, has been doing most of the work outlined in the attached position request. Kyle has managed to take on these duties as a result of both his Finance and Accounting degrees as well as his tenure with the City in the intern position. If we remain with an intern position, when a new intern comes on board, the Finance Director will again have to reassume most of the duties /work outlined in the position request which will create a backlog of work in the Finance department and will limit the amount of work that the City Administrator can delegate to the Finance Director. The position request basically outlines the duties of the position and the Personnel Committee is working on the final version of the job description. Due to the holiday schedule, staff will bring the final version of the job description forward at the December 6 Special City Council Meeting.
