Denton board accepts employee resignation, introduces wage ordinance for first reading
Summary
The board accepted the resignation of employee Ross Blackledge, directed the clerk to post the maintenance supervisor opening, and introduced Ordinance No. 26-5-2 (wage and compensation) for first reading after adding suggested categories for emergency hires and interim consultants.
The Village of Denton Board of Trustees on May 21 accepted the resignation of employee Ross Blackledge. Trustee Ryan Osborn moved to accept the resignation and Chair Joe Hobelman seconded; the motion carried. The board directed Village Clerk/Treasurer Charlotte Te Brink to post the opening for the maintenance supervisor position and to accept applications until the position is filled.
Trustee Osborn, seconded by Trustee Amanda Fangmeier, moved to introduce and hold the first reading of Ordinance No. 26-5-2, a wage-and-compensation ordinance for municipal employees. The minutes note the village attorney suggested adding categories for Emergency Hires and Interim Consultant to the ordinance; the motion to introduce the ordinance carried. The ordinance notice appears in the minutes as "Ordinance No. 26-5-2" (text in the minutes describes compensation provisions and publication requirements).
The board discussed refreshing the job description for the Water/Sewer/Maintenance Operator and considered a contract with the City of Crete for a licensed operator; Chair Hobelman was designated the contact with Crete. Two items related to hiring — hiring a temporary emergency maintenance employee and hiring an interim maintenance employee with a maximum-hours limit — were tabled until the June 1 meeting.
The minutes record each motion as "Carried" but do not provide numeric vote tallies.
