Acceptance of Resignation-Nicholas Delaney IS~E 1 CITY OF SHAKOPEE Police Department Memorandum To: Honorable Mayor, City Council Mark McNeill, City Administrator From: Sgt. Chris Dellwo Subject: Acceptance of Nicholas Delaney Resignation Date: December 0 I, 2003 INTRODUCTION Nicholas Delaney has submitted his resignation as a probationary community service officer for the Shakopee Police Department. A copy of the resignation letter is included for your review. BACKGROUND Community Service Officer Delaney's last day of employment with the Shakopee Police Department will be December 04, 2003. The Shakopee Police Department is seeking Council authorization to fill the vacant position which is a one-half time position consisting of twenty hours per week. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Council accept the resignation of Nicholas Delaney and request the Shakopee Police Civil Service Commission begin the process to fill the position. ACTION REQUESTED If Council concurs, they should by motion, accept Nicholas Delaney's resignation with regret and authorize the filling of the now vacant community service officer position. MEMORANDUM TO: Deputy Chief, Jerry Poole Sergeant, Robert Forberg RE: Two week notice DATE: November 19,2003 FROM: Nicholas Delaney I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Shakopee Police Department, but regret to inform you I have decided to give my two weeks notice. My last day will be December 4th, 2003. Your department is blessed with a great work atmosphere and a group of dedicated employees. Additionally, the community in which you work is uniquely dedicated to supporting the public safety sector, certainly with great cause and admiration for the wonderful work done by the department. I regret having to leave after such a short tenure, but I have been offered a great opportunity elsewhere. The opportunity I have been offered is more acclimated to my career goals and will afford me the chance for permanent employment as an attorney upon graduation and passing of the bar exam. These reasons are all but a fraction of my reasons for departure. A number of personal reasons have also spurred this decision, such as the end of a six year relationship and wedding engagement. Shakopee at one point fit into my scheme geographically, but due to the significant changes in my personal life, has since become somewhat of a hardship. I apologize for any inconvenience I have burdened the department with and wish everyone within the department nothing but the very best. I thank you for the experience you have afforded me and I appreciate your understanding in this matter. SiitDL Nicholas Delaney r
