0:00:00 1. Call to Order

0:00:00 2. Approval of the June 19, 2008 Minutes and EALS
Larry made a motion to approve the EAL and it was seconded by Pam.
Tammy made a motion to approve the minutes and it was seconded by Paul. The minutes and the EAL
were approved.
0:00:00 3. On the Streets-Rich Mclane
The new parking officer will be hired on Monday. Her name is Cheryl Sorenson and she will have 2
weeks of tag-a-long training and then 2 weeks of Monday through Friday training.
Parking citation revenues for June and July were low. Bob is back full time. The numbers should stay
steady from here on out.
0:00:00 4. Garage Update- James Goehrung
Pouring the concrete is the main goal right now. The electrician is having a few issues because of the
time crunch but he is still moving forward.
The condo documents still have not been taken care of due to some issues with the Attorneys. James
will try to get those finished up soon and back to the commission for approval.
James will be talking to NWE about the poles being relocated in the alley. There is a chance that this will
not get done in time for the opening of the garage. If this does happen then the alley will stay as a gravel
road and not be repaved.
Chris met with Dick Prugh and he got the final maps of the bathroom space. We got $15,000 from
streamline just to finish the space. We have about $105,000 total to build the space. The parking
control equipment is in. $250,000 was the invoice that James received. James and Laurae are going to
have a meeting to discuss the parking equipment.
Chris N. noted that some of the materials for the garage need to be picked out and asked who will be
making these decisions. James noted that he would like to be in on making some of the decisions.
0:00:00 5. Approval contract with DBA-Cleaning Services
Chris N. spoke about the proposal for the maintenance services, Chris stated that he would like to meet
with James and take a look at some of the figures again. The contract has gone to the legal department
and it is awaiting final approval. The commission was told that they could approve the contract before it
was finished in the legal department. After the commission has given their approval, Chris N will then go
to the BID for theirs as well.
Pam made a motion to support the proposal on the contract and Steve seconded that. This motion is
approved, contingent on the legal departments decision.
0:00:00 6. Parking Manager Position
Stacy Randle from the HR Dept. came in and discussed the parking manager position. There were eight
applicants that were weeded down to two. These two people were then interviewed and given a ranking
on how well they answered the interview questions.
Lisa discussed the differences between the two applicants and stated that the interview committee
recommends the hiring of Paul Burns for the position.
Tammy made a motion to hire Paul for the position. Lisa seconded the motion. The motion carried.
Chris P. led a discussion about increasing Paul's pay above the minimum due to his experience. After a
lengthy discussion, Stacy approved the hiring at an increased rate due to his 2 years with the Parking
Commission. He would be eligible to be hired at 88% of his midpoint, which is $47,602.
Paul Burns will be offered the position contingent on a background check.
0:00:00 9. Adjourn
