Each of the Commissioners in turn reviewed the information he/she had received from the
various telephone references for the two applicants under consideration for this meeting.
Following review of those telephone conversations, the Commissioners considered these two
I applications, C-6 and C-8, along with the two applications which had been held at Monday's
meeting, C-13 and E-3. Commissioner Weaver indicated whichever candidate is selected from
this group of four will be added to the two, C-4 and E-7, which had been selected at Monday's
meeting as potential candidates for a personal interview.
Following a brief discussion, the Commissioners concurred that applicants C-4, C-8, E-3
and E-7 should be invited to Bozeman for personal interviews. The Commission then directed
the Clerk of the Commission to call the four candidates and invite them for interviews during

candidates through the normal City claim process. Also, the Commission determined it best to
encourage the wives of the candidates to attend the interview if possible and indicated the City
