Trustees extend conditional offer to highway laborer candidate

At a special meeting of the Village Boulevard on Sept. 16, trustees moved to extend a conditional offer of employment to laborer candidate RF091626C in the roadways and facilities (highway) department.

The Clerk said the motion was to accept crew chief Downey's recommendation to extend the conditional offer “to laborer candidate RF091626C at a rate of $25 per hour for 40 hours per week, pending license and background check with no disqualifying factors, and a probationary period of 6 months.” The motion was put to a voice vote.

The transcript records two attendees vocalizing "Aye" after the hiring motion; the Clerk did not read a full roll-call tally in the recorded segments. Earlier roll call in the meeting recorded Trustee Bartosz responding affirmatively, Trustee Hall responding affirmatively, Mayor Foley responding affirmatively, and Trustees Bosey and Deputy Mayor Woods as absent. The full, explicit vote count for the hiring motion was not specified in the transcript.

The Clerk also recorded that the officer in charge would conduct a background check before a final offer is made. The motion language in the meeting explicitly tied the offer to successful licensure and the absence of disqualifying background findings; the hire was described as conditional pending those clearances and a six-month probationary period.

After the hiring motion, a motion to adjourn was moved and seconded. The Clerk called for a voice vote and at least one "Aye" was recorded; the meeting ended shortly after 12:01 p.m.

What happens next: per the motion, the officer in charge will complete the background and license checks before a final offer is issued; no further hearings or votes related to this hiring were recorded in the provided transcript.
