Council ratifies hire of Public Works employee Roper Hardman
Summary
The council ratified the hire of Roper Hardman in Public Works, effective Feb. 1, 2026, after interviews by Public Works staff and council members.
Public Works Director John Balls reported that he, Mayor Dan Keller and Councilmember Terry Larson completed interviews and selected Roper Hardman for a Public Works position. Balls said Hardman "seems to be a good fit in the department, and is doing well." Councilmember Terry Larson moved to ratify the hire and Councilmember Todd Thomas seconded; the ratification passed unanimously, and the minutes record Hardman’s start date as Feb. 1, 2026.
The council treated the ratification as confirmation of a departmental hiring decision; the minutes do not list position grade or compensation.
