Stow City begins process to replace forestry staffer 'Sue'; Davey Resource Group reviewing job description
Summary
City managers are working with Davey Resource Group to review and refine the job description for the vacancy left by an employee identified as Sue; commissioners were told the role will go through the council approval process before it is posted, and full/part-time status is not yet decided.
Commission members were told the city has begun steps to replace an urban forestry employee referred to in the meeting as "Sue." Managers are working with Davey Resource Group to review the existing job description, identify missing requirements and advise on any revisions.
Staff said Davey Resource Group's role is to help evaluate and, if needed, rewrite the job description before the city brings the position to council for approval. Commission members were told the hire could be full time or part time depending on the final job description and budget approvals; no timeline was provided. Once the job description and approval path are finalized, the position will be posted to internal and public hiring channels.
Commissioners also raised questions about a related grant-funded position and whether recent federal developments might affect that funding stream; staff said they had not seen a change affecting the grant but did not have definitive details at the meeting.
Next steps: staff will complete the job description review with Davey Resource Group, return with final language and submit the proposed position to council for approval before beginning recruitment.
