<br />Special City Council Meeting - 11/28/06 <br />Minutes - Page 3 <br /> <br />Mr. Kysylyczyn expressed his interest in having an opportunity <br />for the public to speak to the City Council as a whole regarding <br />the candidates and selection process. <br /> <br />Councilmembers each voted for their top three candidates: <br /> <br />TALLY 1 <br />Chris Miller (4); Scott Randall (0); Jim Norman (I); Bill Malinen <br />(4); and Amy Filice (5). <br /> <br />Upon consensus of Councilmembers, Mr. Randall and Mr. <br />Norman were removed from the candidate pool at this time. <br /> <br />At this time, Councilmembers individually and collectively <br />discussed their selection rationale and preferences, and what they <br />were looking for in a candidate. Discussion included weighting of <br />City Manager and/or leadership experience; internal and external <br />panel rankings and comments; personalities; strengths and <br />weaknesses identified during the individual interview processes; <br />ability to articulate personal visions and adapting to community <br />visions; day-to-day leadership qualities versus reacting to daily <br />crises; prior management experience and credentials; weight of <br />testing results; internal experience versus objectives and <br />qualifications of all candidates; balancing previous City Manager <br />experience and positives and negatives of that experience; <br />personal observations, responses, and reactions of candidates <br />during the individual interview process; and perception of abilities <br />to work with staff, residents and the business community. <br /> <br />Additional discussion included the candidates having the widest <br />breadth of experience; knowledge of the organization and <br />community; and negotiation of the employment agreement. <br /> <br />After further discussion, Council consensus was that each <br />Councilmember confidentially vote for their top two finalists from <br />the three remaining finalists. <br />
