Summary

Town Manager Rommel Pazmino told the council that interviews for Public Works hires are scheduled this week, the town has hired an HR consultant to review hiring practices, the town attorney is reviewing personnel manual changes, auditors recommended hiring a payroll consultant, and administrative employee evaluations are nearly complete.

Town Manager Rommel Pazmino briefed the council on a set of administrative and personnel matters at the Jan. 5 workshop.

Pazmino said interviews for Public Works positions will take place this week: the town has four applicants for Public Works technician and two applicants for Lead technician; Mayor Jeffrey Schomisch and Councilman Mike Walker will join Pazmino in conducting interviews. He said the town has hired a human-resources consultant to review and update hiring processes and that administrative employee evaluations are nearly complete.

Pazmino said the town attorney is reviewing recent proposed changes to the personnel manual and that he will meet the attorney on Friday, Jan. 9, to discuss the edits. He reported auditors had recommended hiring a payroll consultant; the recommendation was noted but no procurement action was recorded at the workshop.

Pazmino also reported several operational items: the mosquito-control application is due in March and the cost has increased from $1,200 to $1,600, an expense the town will need to account for in its upcoming budget work. Councilman Julio Murillo asked for a follow-up on a WSSC patch at 71st and Shepherd Street; town staff were asked to pursue the matter.

No formal personnel actions, procurements or votes were taken during the workshop; councilmembers received the updates and scheduled follow-ups as needed.
