Council present were Monfor, Measles, Swarner, Smalley, Bookey, and Williams. Absent councilmember was McComsey. Staff present were Brown, Graves, Howard, Freas. Public present were Ethyl Claussen and Donna Brown. Council determined to review the list of applicants one by one and state whether that applicant was to remain on the list of possibles or be deleted. If council had a mixed decision on an applicant, they would discuss the applicant briefly and decide whether to keep the applicant on the list. Councilmembers stated that they individually determined whether to keep an applicant on the active list by presentation of their resumes (misspelled words, hand-written corrections, etc.). Council decided that not all applications needed to be reviewed by all the council. Some councilmembers preferred to see as many as possible. Measles stated that he kept applications active if they had the basic requirements (experience and college degree). Measles added that he was liberal with some who had borderline amount of the seven years of experience. Measles stated he kept 65 applicants in his active group.
