Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,March 13,2023 <br /> Page 4 <br /> the beginning to the end and she liked that. She noted that being able to see through <br /> a process is a good ability to have. <br /> Roll Call <br /> Ayes: Groff, Strahan, Etten, Schroeder, and Roe. <br /> Nays: None <br /> Etten moved, Schroeder seconded, appointing Des Mueller to the Public Work, <br /> Environment and Transportation Commission. <br /> Council Discussion <br /> Councilmember Etten thought Ms. Mueller would bring a balance to this <br /> Commission and he very much appreciated her long-term commitment to the City <br /> working not only as a direct volunteer but also working with City staff. He noted <br /> Ms. Mueller has knowledge of the departments that will help her to land on the <br /> ground and start helping right away. <br /> Councilmember Schroeder echoed that and added Ms. Mueller seemed to have a <br /> very good understanding of the City and what is going on in the City. <br /> Mayor Roe thought the one thing that the City is always challenged with on this <br /> Commission is that there are a lot of individuals in the City that have technical <br /> expertise in these areas. So,it is very tempting to get all of them on the Commission <br /> but he did appreciate having that non-technical perspective as well as a broad <br /> perspective. <br /> Roll Call <br /> Ayes: Groff, Strahan, Etten, Schroeder, and Roe. <br /> Nays: None <br /> Mayor Roe asked if there was anything the Council wanted to discuss about the <br /> interview process, anything to change, or to improve on. <br /> Councilmember Schroeder thought the process of moving the meetings around did <br /> not seem to work very well. There are a few things that fell through the cracks, it <br /> was loud, and she was not so sure that people knew exactly where to go for the <br /> interviews. She was even a little confused as to where she was supposed to go each <br /> night. She would like to see the interview meetings moved back to City Hall,noting <br /> then all of the equipment and agendas are available to them. She indicated there <br /> was also some discussion before she became a Councilmember if the interviews <br /> should be recorded or not. She thought these should be recorded because it is a <br /> meeting,the City records the other meetings, and the people applying will be <br /> recorded every time in a meeting so it is not like the City is protecting them from <br /> not being on television. <br />
