Council hears updates on police staffing, library odor fix and upcoming employee event
Summary
During open discussion the council heard that an officer is at the academy, another is on field training, the library odor was resolved by removing old blinds, and an employee appreciation party is scheduled for March 28.
At the start of the open-discussion portion of the meeting Speaker 2 gave personnel updates for the police department: one officer, Keith, is at the police academy and doing well; Officer Avery is on field training under Randy Bridal and assigned overnight shifts. Speaker 2 said the department will test candidates next week for an assistant or special supervisor position and proceed to oral interviews; the recruitment window closes on the ninth and two applications have been received so far.
Speaker 5 described resolving a longstanding odor problem at the library. According to the transcript, staff located the source as old roll-up blinds that emitted a smell when heated by afternoon sun; they removed the blinds and tinted windows, and the odor issue did not persist after that action.
Speaker 5 also announced an employee appreciation party scheduled for March 28 at the auditorium and discussed typical set-up timing (around 6:00 p.m.). Other brief items mentioned included sewer work and routine acknowledgments; no formal actions or budget changes were proposed during these updates.
