Council authorizes advertising for new rent and capital project administrator position
Summary
The council approved a motion to advertise a new position titled 'rent and capital project administrator' after staff explained it would centralize grant, capital-project and records-management duties rather than add headcount.
The Hilliard Town Council voted to authorize advertising for a new position described as the 'rent and capital project administrator.' Administrative speaker (Speaker 2) explained the role would consolidate grant management, capital-project oversight and records duties and emphasized that it "isn't creating an additional employee, just a new position, title, and description" to be advertised and filled through recruitment.
Council members asked whether the role would supplant or coexist with a deputy-clerk or who would run meetings in the clerk's absence. Speaker 2 clarified the role is distinct from clerk duties: "This is not clerk work. This is additional work that I've taken on over the years that needs to be a position. It's grown to the point where it's unmanageable for 1 person to do all the variety of things that I'm currently doing." The council moved to advertise the position, seconded the motion and approved it; members noted the financial impact was budgeted.
