Council approves deputy finance director salary and appointment as emergency items
Summary
The Columbiana City Council passed emergency Ordinance No. 25-OD-3303 to set the deputy finance director's salary and Resolution No. 25-R-668 approving the appointment effective June 2025; the new hire is expected to start June 30.
The Columbiana City Council approved emergency legislation on June 17 to set the salary for a deputy director of finance and to confirm the appointment.
Ordinance No. 25-OD-3303 amended Ordinance No. 25-OD-3288 to set salaries and positions for certain appointed personnel, with the only change described on the record as setting the salary for the deputy director of finance. Council then approved Resolution No. 25-R-668, an emergency resolution approving the city manager's appointment of a deputy director of finance effective June 2025.
City Manager Dr. Lance Willard said the new hire has been selected and "they're gonna start, I believe it's the thirtieth of, the month." Council members indicated they had signed the salary form during the meeting and voted to approve the ordinance and resolution as emergency measures so the hire could be finalized.
The meeting record did not disclose the new hire's name or salary amount on the public transcript. Council members discussed and approved the administrative steps necessary to finalize the appointment; staff indicated payroll and personnel paperwork had been completed during the session.
