Council tables creation of assistant city manager/PIO position after requests for market data and onboarding time
Summary
Council members expressed concern about pay-grade placement and the timing of creating an assistant city manager/director of community engagement position; after discussion the council voted to table the item so staff can provide market data and allow incoming council members to review materials.
Council discussed a proposed assistant city manager/director of community engagement (PIO) position and then voted to table the item so staff can provide market-based compensation data and new council members can receive onboarding materials.
A public commenter and union representative, speaking as a member of ASME local 73, had urged the council to table the item and raised concern that the position would start at over $103,000 per year while other positions had not received cost-of-living or market adjustments. Council members asked staff for market data and for a plan to bring new council members up to speed; staff agreed to provide additional information.
The motion to table was seconded and passed; tabling will cause the item to return at the next meeting unless the council later votes otherwise.
