Council ratifies $47,354 payment for temporary IT help‑desk staffing
Summary
San Luis ratified payment for temporary IT help‑desk services contracted through Robert Half to cover staffing transitions; the temporary employee was later hired full time, staff said.
IT Manager Fernando Corona asked the council to ratify payment for temporary help‑desk staffing provided by Robert Half between August 12, 2024 and March 21, 2025. Corona said the temporary technician helped maintain day‑to‑day technical operations during an internal staffing transition and that the city made a payment totaling $47,354.50, and requested a budget transfer of $54,600 to cover the cost. Corona said the city sought to waive formal procurement procedures under a city purchasing code provision.
During questions, a council member asked whether the temporary worker had been hired. Corona replied the temporary‑to‑hire path is a benefit of using staffing agencies and that the person was retained after positive performance. Council approved a motion to ratify the payment, execute the budget transfer and waive formal procurement procedures; the motion carried by voice vote.
