Mendon council appoints Stephanie Miller as city clerk/office manager and swears her in

The Mendon City Council appointed Stephanie Miller to the newly advertised city clerk/office manager position at a special meeting and immediately administered the oath of office.

Mayor (unnamed in the transcript) presented Miller to the council after a short candidate review and asked her to introduce herself. Miller described past municipal service and said she looked forward to supporting the council and city residents: "I would love to keep busy. I am not one to just have nothing to do," she said.

The mayor praised Miller's qualifications and teamwork, calling her "extremely knowledgeable and team-oriented." A council member moved to appoint Miller to the city clerk/office manager role; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote with verbal "Aye" responses. Council then administered the standard oath for the United States and the State of Utah and completed a brief swearing-in.

Council members discussed, during the same sequence, the staffing label used for the individual who has been serving with planning and zoning: whether that person served as a deputy clerk or as a planning and zoning secretary. The mayor said job descriptions and assignments would be clarified and that one of Miller's early tasks will be drafting or updating those job descriptions as the city's responsibilities expand.

The council's formal appointment and swearing-in were followed by procedural business to move into an executive session to discuss annexation policy and building fees. The swearing-in appears to have concluded the public portion of the appointment action.
