Jim Koger told the council he plans to retire June 1, 2025 with his last day May 30. The council approved merit increases per policy and then voted to make Becky Coltrone the "City Clerk in Training," granting her the powers, duties, and privileges of the clerk's position. The council also agreed by consensus to advertise for one or more positions to assume some of Jim's and Becky’s responsibilities, with Jim and Becky to define role descriptions.
The council held executive sessions to discuss non-elected personnel (two sessions for 10 and 20 minutes) and returned with no formal action from those sessions. The personnel decisions recorded in open session (title change and hiring authorization) were approved by recorded motion and vote where noted.
