LAKEWOOD CITY COUNCIL

Meeting Notes

 

September 23, 1995

Transition Office - 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.

 

1. Meeting was called to order with Bill Harrison, Ann Davis, Sherri Thomas, Claudia Thomas, and Doug Richardson present. Claudia Thomas served as the Chair.

 

2. Discussion was held concerning the minutes of the previous meeting. Law Appreciation Day was corrected to reflect the 23rd of September rather than the 26th.

 

Peter Slowiaczek has located a Judge that would re-issue the oath of office on the 21st of October, if the Council had been previously sworn in.

 

Ann presented an Oath of Office that could be used if there was an earlier ceremony.

 

3. Interview Processing:

 

Question #10 was modified to insert "Community and" before Economic Development. Verified that Questions 1-4, 6 10, and 13 would be asked of the candidates. Question 5 was included in Question 1 and Question 12 was included in Question 2. At the conclusion of each interview, the candidates will be asked by the Chair; "Do you have any questions of us?"

 

Discussion was conducted concerning a public forum for the final three candidates. Bill Harrison agreed to contact Stan Flemming about the public feedback form used in University Place.

 

No additional resumes will be considered for City Manager in this round until the screening process is complete and it is determined that more are necessary.

 

Logistics: Interviews will be conducted in Room #6. T. D. Imholt will serve as the receptionist/hostess.
