The Hallock City Council approved a pay step increase for Deputy Clerk Kara Johnson after a six‑month personnel review.
Personnel Committee members Councilor Kevin Waller, Naomi Larson and Administrator Kendra Kroening met with Kara Johnson for her six‑month review. Councilor Waller reported the committee recommended moving Johnson from step 3 to step 4. Administrator Kroening praised Johnson’s performance, saying she "is doing a great job, she is great with customers, very friendly, takes the initiative to problem solve, deals with the public very well, does a good job with the campers."
