Maysville board hires laborer Tony Purcell at $19 per hour after interviews
Summary
After interviewing applicants for a laborer position at a March 24 special meeting, the Maysville Board of Aldermen voted to hire Tony Purcell at $19 per hour with a 90-day review; Purcell accepted and will start March 31, 2025.
The Maysville Board of Aldermen voted at a March 24 special meeting to hire Tony Purcell as a city laborer at $19.00 per hour with a 90-day review. The motion to hire was made by Alderman Peggy Harwood and seconded by Alderman Clint Sollars; the transcript records that the motion "carried" but does not list a roll-call tally.
The board interviewed Purcell first; Purcell told the board he could begin next Monday and asked for $20 per hour. The board then interviewed Dakota Hiley, who said he could start in two weeks and also requested $20 per hour. Board members noted the two applicants had different qualifications before moving to hire Purcell at the lower rate with a 90-day performance review.
After the vote, the city clerk contacted Purcell, who accepted the $19-per-hour offer and confirmed a start date of March 31, 2025. The meeting agenda and attendance list show Mayor Ronnie Pearl and board members Larry Zieber, Amy Justus, Clint Sollars and Peggy Harwood were present; Brendon Chambers and Pat Fisher Johnson were also listed among attendees.
With no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
