Summary
At its Dec. 2 meeting the commission approved promotions and appointments across parks, public works, police and several boards, including promotions for Jakia Patterson and Joshua Lee, appointments of Andrew Prince, Kaylee Cook and Andrea Kitchens, and reappointments and new board members for several advisory boards.
The Bowling Green commission used its Dec. 2 agenda to approve multiple personnel actions across city departments.
Among the actions approved were promotions and appointments in Parks & Recreation, Public Works and Police: the promotion of Jakia (also referenced as Jakiya/Chiquia in the record) Patterson to community center supervisor at Parker Bennett Community Center; the promotion of Joshua Lee to a trades worker electrician; the probationary appointment of Andrew (Drew) Prince to construction coordinator 2 in Public Works; the appointment of Kaylee Cook as a communications dispatcher 1 in the Police Department; and the appointment of Andrea Kitchens as a property custodian in the Police Department. HR staff described recruitment and selection processes, noting applicant counts and interview panels for the listed positions.
The commission also approved reappointments to the Contractor’s Licensing Board (Eric Gill, Sue Perrigan, Steve Speakman and David Souders) and appointed Jamie Johnson to the Bowling Green Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. Fran Bowen was appointed to the City‑County Board of Adjustments to replace a departing member.
All personnel items were moved, seconded and approved by roll call.
Next steps: Departments will complete onboarding as appropriate and HR will ensure paperwork and classification updates are processed.
