Summary

Following a noted resignation and retirement letter from a staffer named 'Charlotte,' the council authorized beginning recruitment for the Campbell Library director position and moved administrative steps to fill the vacancy.

The East Grand Forks City Council on Jan. 20 authorized city staff to begin a hiring process for the Campbell Library director position after Mayor Mark Olstead acknowledged receipt of a resignation and retirement letter from an employee identified as Charlotte.

The motion to start recruitment was moved by Dale Helms and seconded by Tammy Schumacher; the motion passed on a unanimous roll call. Council members expressed appreciation for the outgoing employee’s service in brief remarks but did not read personnel documents or provide further details about the timeline for filling the position.

Staff and council did not specify whether the recruitment will be internal or external, the target start date for the new director, or salary range; the council motion authorized only the hiring process. City staff indicated they had no additional reports during the meeting and the council adjourned shortly thereafter.
