City Council Minutes <br /> April 21, 2015 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br /> Option 2 is to hire an administrator and promote the finance administrator <br /> to the clerk/treasurer position. Mr. Weiers noted that this would create a <br /> new administrator position and current administrational duties of the <br /> clerk/treasurer would move to this new position. The administrator's <br /> salary would be approximately $15,000 more than the current <br /> clerk/treasurer's salary and the additional $5,500 increase to the finance <br /> administrator's salary would be due to additional clerk/treasurer <br /> responsibilities. This option would capitalize on the talent of existing staff. <br /> Option 3 is to add an administrator position to the`current clerk/treasurer <br /> position.
