Tetonia discusses part‑time clerical hire, SCADA gaps and TREC funding request; executive session held on personnel
Summary
Councilmembers discussed adding a part‑time office assistant to ease clerk workload, learned the SCADA system is not fully connected and daily manual reads are being used, and deferred a $2,400 TREC funding request to the budget process; they later entered executive session under ICC 74‑206 to discuss personnel.
Mayor Brent Schindler told the council the City Clerk's workload has become unsustainable and initiated discussion about creating a part‑time clerical/seasonal position to assist with office duties. Council expressed general support for starting the hiring process; no formal personnel hiring action was taken in open session.
The mayor also noted the municipal SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system was never fully connected and staff currently log daily visual reads because remote SCADA reads are unavailable. The council asked staff to bring system estimates to the next budget meeting for a funding decision.
Teton Regional Economic Coalition requested $2,400 from Tetonia to supplement its budget; Mayor Schindler suggested revisiting the request during the budget process. Mayor Schindler also noted an expected small water‑district invoice of about $250.
Later the council voted to go into executive session per Idaho Code ICC 74‑206 to discuss personnel matters; roll‑call votes were recorded and the executive session began at 9:29 p.m. The meeting adjourned at 9:45 p.m.
