Board to offer IBA position to top-scoring candidate; backups identified
Summary
After reviewing three finalists, the board agreed to pursue an offer to the top-ranked candidate (transcript name spelled Capelman/Caplman/Castleman) with Dodson named as the fallback if the top candidate declines; fingerprints/background checks were noted as required.
Board members reviewed results of IBA candidate interviews and collectively agreed on how to proceed with hiring. At the meeting, staff presented a summary chart and resumes for three finalists and reported that all three “passed” the screening. Based on collective scoring, the candidate identified in the transcript as Capelman placed first (4.71), Dodson placed second and Chester placed third.
Board members said they would offer the position to the top-scoring candidate (Capelman) and, if she declined or became unavailable, would extend an offer to the next-ranked candidate, Dodson. Members raised one credential question: Speaker 2 asked whether Capelman’s Certified Public Accountant credential would expire at the end of December; colleagues said she had already begun the renewal process and expected it to be current by year-end.
Staff noted that background checks and fingerprints are required before final appointment; Speaker 3 asked the board to confirm completion of those checks and thanked staff (Josh) for coordinating. Board members asked staff to reach out promptly to candidates and to report back on acceptances and any outstanding credential or clearance requirements.
The board did not complete a formal hire vote at this meeting; members said they would proceed with offers and report results to the board when candidates accept.
