Appointment of the Finance Director:
Corrie: As we had it, at the last meeting we discussed the different people that were in the running for Finance Director. At this time we have got all of the references back. The
last one came in today from the warden out there. I guess, if anybody would like to read the comment about what her weakness, I would be happy to share that with you. After you read
it you will understand why I’m saying that here.
Bird: It’s not here.
Corrie: That was the warden’s comment. So, anyway, at this time I would like to make the appointment of Finance Director as Stacie Kilchenmann. Her husband is a German-Swedish –
or German-Swiss – so, it is Stacie Kilchenmann.
Bird: Mr. Mayor, I have one question. She has been offered the job and has she accepted?
Corrie: Yes, she will be tomorrow morning and she has been told the salary and that and she has no problems with that. She would love to come; I just want to make it official and
then offer her the job.

De Weerd: Second.
Corrie: Motion made and seconded to approve of Stacie Kilchenmann as the appointed Finance Director. Further discussion?
Anderson: Was she not able to make it tonight?

Anderson: Is she ready to start negotiations?

Anderson: What is her start date?
Corrie: Probably about two-weeks, three at the most.
Bird: May 1st, right in there.
Corrie: Well, we might get her in at the end of April or so.
