Council holds executive session on finance director's job performance; returns with no official action
Summary
The council recessed into executive session to consider the job performance of the director of finance and accounting. After the closed session, the council reported no official action was taken and moved forward with a salary ordinance to allow advertising for the position.
During discussion of an ordinance setting salary for a director of finance and accounting, councilmembers raised questions about the incumbent's resignation date and leave status. Council asked for a closed executive session to discuss "job performance of an employee in a specific position," which the city attorney characterized as the director of finance and accounting.
The council recessed to executive session and later returned to the public meeting. City attorney Bruni reported that no official action was taken during the closed session; the public record was instructed to note the lack of official action. Following the closed session, the council voted to adopt the salary ordinance to permit the city to advertise the position.
Council members who raised questions said they wanted to ensure personnel matters were handled appropriately and suggested executive session was necessary to preserve privacy for employee matters; the council did not disclose further details and took no formal disciplinary or hiring action at the meeting.
