Summary

Council approved the aquatic-center wage schedule, granted a remote-work arrangement for an employee, and promoted firefighter Levi Rollein to administrative lieutenant; several items were noted as previously budgeted or recommended by Park & Rec.

Council approved a package of personnel and operational items. Staff presented the aquatic-center employee list and wage schedule for 2026, noting returning guards and new service-side staff; Park & Rec recommended approval and council voted to adopt the wage schedule.

On personnel policy, council approved a remote-work request for an employee (Sarah) for February and March in line with the city's flexible-work policy; staff will monitor hours. The council conducted a separate personnel action to promote firefighter Levi Rollein to an administrative-lieutenant position that had been budgeted previously; members cited the department's desire to begin transition and training promptly.

Why this matters: Approving wages and the promotion supports seasonal services at the aquatic center and strengthens fire-department capacity. The remote-work approval reflects an operational personnel policy in practice.

Next steps: Staff will implement the wage scale, monitor the remote-work arrangement, and facilitate Rollein's transition into the administrative-lieutenant role.
