Sally Kenney

Clerk/Treasurer

Motion by Coenen, seconded by Schell to adopt the Finance & Personnel Committee Meeting minutes of March 16, 2020.  Ald. Kohne asked to clarify item 8 to list what was being recommended for approval.  Atty. Davidson stated the documentation that was presented for the recommendation would suffice.  Ald. Duda asked for a roll call vote on item number 8 because she does not feel the Clerk/Treasurer Position would need to be a closed session item and the position would need to be posted.  Ald. Coenen asked why this position would need to be posted.  Ald. Duda stated this is a newly created job and any vacancy at the City needs to be posted – rule number 21.  Discussion was held on proper procedure for approval.  

Motion by Duda, seconded by DeCoster to have a separate vote on item number 8.  That’s the same motion, a second motion of that item as I don’t think it should have been a closed session and the Clerk’s position has to be advertised.

Atty. Davidson stated this entire meeting is being recorded and advised that a review of the recording takes place.  If there is a miscommunication on the part of any of the motions and what was voted, it should be brought to the next meeting to be clarified and voted on.  Unfortunately, because of the phone conference it is hard to get clarity.  Anyone who voted in favor of a motion that was passed has an opportunity raise a motion to reconsider at a subsequent meeting.    

Motion by Roehrig, seconded by Thiele to reconsider the previous motion.

Motion by Duda, seconded by DeCoster to take a separate vote on the second motion “Motion by Coenen, seconded by Roehrig to recommend approval from the Council for the restructuring of positions due to the election results to change the elected Clerk/Treasurer position to appointed effective May 1, 2020 as presented.”
