(KLZA)-- Following an executive session to discuss personnel matters Wednesday evening, the Falls City Council approved changes to the city management structure and a new staffing strategy.
In August, the Board of Public Works adopted new job descriptions for Electric Superintendent and Public Works Superintendent for future support to the Director of Public Works / Utility Superintendent.
The positons are intended to create additional management and provide succession planning for critical utility functions.
The Board is not recommending the positions be filled immediately.
Two administrative staff members at City Hall are resigning their poisitions for other opportunities. Sandra Ferris, Deputy City Administrator / Clerk/ Treasurer has been with the city for more than 20 years. In addition, a third person working in the city office is also leaving the city's employment.
The Council also approved new job descriptions for a position titled Deputy City Clerk / Human Resources and the position of Deputy Treasurer / Utility Billing Manager.
Currently, the offices of City Clerk and City Treasurer remain merged within the City Administrators role.
In a report to the Mayor and Council, Administrator, Clerk, Treasurer Anthony Nussbaum says the current structure has become increasingly challenging due to the growth in complexity of city operations and financial oversight.
