CITY OF SHAKOPEE
MEMORANDUM CONSENT
To: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
From: Kris Wilson, Assistant to the City Administrator
Mark Themig, Parks, Recreation & Facilities Director
Meeting Date: April 13, 2006
Subject: Authorization to Hire Custodian
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is asked to authorize hiring Steve Quaday for the position of Custodian.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The 2006 budget includes funding for a fourth full-time custodian to perform general
custodial duties at City facilities. The need for an additional custodian was triggered in
part by the addition of the new Public Works building, as well as by the need for
additional hours of custodial work at some existing City facilities.
On February 7, the Council authorized advertising the position. An interview panel
consisting of Duane Toenyan, Josh Barrick and myself interviewed six candidates. Based
on those interviews and subsequent reference checks, it is recommended that the Council
authorize hiring Steve Quaday. Mr. Quaday has six years of custodial experience with
St. Stephen's Church and School in Anoka.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize hiring Steve Quaday for the position of
Custodian, with a starting salary at Grade 1, Step E ($13.19 per hour / $27,441 per year).
His tentative start date is May 15. This action is contingent on successful pre-
employment screening.
REQUESTED ACTION
If Council concurs, it should move to authorize hiring Steve Quaday for the position of
Custodian at Grade 1, Step E of the 2006 City Pay Plan, contingent on the successful
completion of the City's required pre-employment screening.
