Council renames recreation post, approves job description and appoints interim coordinator
Summary
The council approved a resolution renaming the recreation director role to "recreation program coordinator," passed a job-description resolution, and approved an amended resolution appointing Gail Ambler as interim recreation director at $14.91 per hour.
Council members reviewed personnel committee recommendations to change the recreation director title and job description to better reflect program-focused duties rather than administrative leadership. The personnel committee presented Resolution 61 2025 to rename the position and the council approved the change after brief discussion emphasizing that "coordinator" signals program coordination rather than an administrative directorship.
The recreation committee also moved an amended resolution to appoint Gail Ambler as interim recreation director at her current janitorial wage of $14.91 per hour, effective Jan. 5, 2026 (the resolution text was amended to reflect February 2026). The council adopted the amended resolution by roll call. Chair praised Ambler's long service and asked the community to "offer your thanks for everything that she does for the city of Juneau."
