Summary

After three scheduled interviews were canceled, the Village of Duncan Board voted unanimously to reopen recruitment for the Back-up Utility Superintendent position for three weeks to broaden the applicant pool.

The Village of Duncan Board of Trustees voted May 12 to reopen recruitment for the Back-up Utility Superintendent position after three scheduled candidate interviews were canceled. Chairperson Gary Schlesinger told trustees that 11 applications had been received and the top three candidates were scheduled for interviews, but "all of the interviews were cancelled by the applicants," leaving the village without qualified finalists.

Trustee Jerusha Ratcliffe moved to reopen the position for three weeks; Van Steyn seconded the motion. The board voted unanimously to approve the extension. Schlesinger said there were no other qualified applicants among the current pool and recommended the board advertise the opening for an additional two to three weeks to expand the candidate pool.

The board did not set a firm reopening date in the meeting record; further advertising details and any updated application deadlines will be determined by village staff. The board adjourned without taking additional personnel action on the item.
