Establishing a Process and a Timeline for Appointing a Councilmember Councilmember Schroeder expressed concern, in his review of the proposed schedule, that one (1) week for the Council application period may not be sufficient, and would prefer a two (2) week application period, avoiding the need for a Special Council meeting on Tuesday, February 20, 2004 for interviews. Councilmember Maschka questioned Councilmember Schroeder's preference for interviewing or not interviewing candidates. Councilmember Schroeder clarified that he did prefer to interview candidates, but those interviews could be held on Monday, January 26, 2004 at the regular meeting, and would allow for a two-week application period. Councilmember Maschka expressed his willingness to extend the application period for ten days, and consider appointments on January 26, 2004; but preferred to conduct interviews at a Special meeting tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, January 20, 2004; which would allow the appointee to work with staff to get up-to-speed on issues and operational procedures.
