The Rushford City Council on Feb. 23 approved an employment agreement with Hayden Stensgard to fill the city administrator position.
Under the agreement the city will provide a laptop and phone that remain city property if the employee separates from service. The contract adds a severance provision that begins to accrue after a one-year probationary period at 2½ weeks per year, up to a maximum of four months' pay. Stensgard requested, and the council approved, a 10-day initial vacation allotment; future vacation will accrue under the city's standard schedule.
The motion to approve the contract was made by Councilor Judi Pronk and seconded by Councilor Andrew Linder. The motion carried. The council did not record a roll-call tally in the meeting minutes.
Council materials indicate the city intends to finalize onboarding and provide the city-owned equipment at the start of employment. No effective date was specified in the minutes.
