NEW BUSINESS
New Position Duties Statement and Revision of Job Description: Deputy City Clerk
The Commission reviewed and discussed a New Position Duties Statement from the Mayor
for a new position in the Public Information and Technology Department and proposed
revisions to the Deputy City Clerk job description. The Deputy City Clerk position has been
dormant for nineteen years and is being restored. The revisions reflect updated tasks and
duties, and include new responsibilities for providing staff support to City commissions. The
updates do not change the overall scope or nature of the position, nor do they render its
exempt jurisdictional classification inappropriate. Commissioner Thompson made a motion
to classify the position as Deputy City Clerk and revise the job description as proposed.
