The City Council approved two part-time positions for Public Works — a part-time water distribution operator and a part-time wastewater operator — intended to train current Public Works staff toward required licensure. The motion (M/Carlson, S/Gorman) carried unanimously.

The minutes record a combined cost of $3,000 per month for the two positions and state the intent that, once current staff become licensed, the part-time roles will no longer be needed. The positions were described as temporary training support rather than permanent headcount increases.
