Board advances park superintendent job description, discusses salary range

Park staff presented an updated job description the board had discussed in executive session and asked for direction to submit it to city personnel so the parks department could begin a job search. The packet lists a proposed salary structure and board members agreed the role should be submitted for approval and recruitment.

Participants discussed salary numbers cited in the meeting: one speaker referenced "45,000 for the superintendent and 12 for the caretaker, which is $1,000 a month plus the house," while packet lines and later comments referenced a $7,000 line-item in the proposed budget plus housing. Board members said benefits may be included and that broader city budget constraints will shape the final salary and hiring timeline. A motion to approve the job description was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote; staff will submit the document to city administration for formal posting.
