Summary

City clerk reported four qualified applications for three Civil Service Commission vacancies effective Feb. 14; council directed staff to interview all candidates and set a schedule.

Katie Rodriguez, Aurora's city clerk, told council that three Civil Service Commission seats will be vacant effective Feb. 14 and that the clerk's office received four qualified applications by the January 7 cutoff. Rodriguez named the applicants seeking reappointment (Barbara Cleland, Matthew Snyder, Desmond McNeal) and one new applicant, Andrea Stacia Clark, and asked whether council wanted to reappoint or interview candidates.

Council members expressed a preference for interviewing all candidates for consistency with prior practice. Rodriguez noted the proposed schedule in the packet: close applications Jan. 17, council to determine interview candidates at the Jan. 27 council meeting, and interviews to occur during the Feb. 10 study session.

Council raised attendance as a factor in reappointment decisions; a council member said the three incumbents "are regularly in attendance" at commission hearings. Council directed staff to conduct interviews per the proposed schedule.
