Prospect to replace longtime code-enforcement officer; committee seeks overlap period
Summary
The committee was told code-enforcement officer Mike Thomas will retire (reported last day Aug. 31). Staff said they plan to recruit a replacement and overlap the new hire with Thomas for at least a month; a job description is expected soon.
Linda told the Forestation Committee that Mike Thomas, the city's code-enforcement officer, will retire at the end of August; she reported his anticipated last day as Aug. 31. The committee discussed recruiting a replacement and the desire to have the new employee overlap with Thomas for at least a month to transfer duties.
Committee members asked whether a job description is ready; Linda said she expected to have one by early next week. The group discussed desirable experience: staff suggested someone from the building trades could fill both the policing and code-enforcement aspects of the role as the city currently splits the job across duties.
No formal hiring action occurred at the meeting; members were asked to recommend candidates and the committee will follow up when the job description and recruitment steps are finalized.
