<br />. Search Finn I am not sure we have enough staff to keep day~to~day work in check <br />. Search Firm will help to find more candidates from many different backgrounds. I believe that <br />public management experience is impOJiant, howeverl private sector management experience can <br />be beneficial as \\"ell <br />. Search firms are expensive, take a lot of staff time, and don't understand City needs as \vell as <br />staff. Howeverl they have contacts and connections the staff does not - so perhaps some <br />combination of\vould best suit City needs. <br />. Internal searches are more likely to yield a broader field of candidates <br /> <br />Importance oflocal vs. national search: <br /> <br />. Local perspective \\'ould be good - 3 people said this <br />. National search - need to get someone who is outside of cllnent system. I think local candidates <br />\vill not be likely to I,\lant this position if they keep up with what has happened here over the last <br />fevl' years. - 3 people said this <br />. National search - better -- 3 people said this <br />. National search might bring diversity of ideas, which sometimes might be a compromise. <br />. If Chris Miller is not hired fulltime to replacel then National search to get large enough pool of <br />applicants <br />. A national search will be more expensive and take longer, but may result in a larger and more <br />diverse candidate pool <br />. Undecided - I thought that doing a national search previously led to some very strong candidates; <br />hO\vever, I also think there may be some value in staying local this time and having a city manager <br />who is more plugged into the area <br /> <br />Are there any individnals known to yon who should be recruited for this position? <br /> <br />.
