Staff member (first speaker) asked the personnel committee to authorize granting a total of 120 hours (one additional week) of vacation leave to the candidate being hired for Chief Building Official to help recruit a qualified applicant to replace Charles Cochran; the candidate is from Massillon. The staff member said the city typically grants two weeks and the state allows two years for new hires to reach required qualifications.
