ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 2001 <br />• 11. Navarre Commercial Area Vision Process — Continued <br />Flint suggested they discuss the issue during the budget process. White suggested there <br />maybe grants available for the project. <br />*12. Request to Hire Full -time Community Service Officer <br />White moved, and Sansevere seconded, to approve the hiring of Mr. Joshua Arneson <br />as a full -time Community Service Officer at the beginning wage of $11.43 per hour, <br />to include benefits, effective August 27, 2001. <br />13. Request to Hire Part -Time Police Officer – Resolution No. 4680 <br />Mayor Peterson asked why they want to hire part-time officers. Moorse stated they need <br />part-time officers to fill in during vacation times and special activities. They also fill <br />shifts that full -time officers would be paid overtime for. Many private parties request off - <br />duty police officers during the summer months, and part-time officers could meet some of <br />those requests. Also, when a space opens up on the police force, a part-time officer can <br />easily be hired into full -time and they will already be part of the Orono police force. Flint <br />asked how many hours they work per week. Moorse stated it was approximately 2 shifts <br />per week. <br />• White moved, and Flint seconded, to hire Ronald J. Hendricks as a part -time police <br />officer at the beginning rate of $13.46, and to adopt Resolution No. 4680 to declare <br />that the part -time position held by Ronald J. Hendricks is that of a Police Officer. <br />Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 1 (Mayor Peterson). <br />14. Request to Hire Temporary Part -Time Employees <br />Moorse stated that the temporary part-time employees would work as undercover <br />operatives for the sole purpose of attempting to buy liquor from licensed vendors in the <br />Orono Police jurisdiction. They would be paid $9.50 an hour and would not exceed 40 <br />hours. <br />Sansevere asked if they could even hit 40 hours. Moorse stated they probably would not, <br />unless they went to court as a witness. <br />Mayor Peterson moved, and White seconded, to approve the hiring of 2 persons to <br />work as undercover operatives for the sole purpose of attempting to buy liquor from <br />licensed vendors in the Orono Police jurisdiction. They would be paid $9.50 an hour <br />and would not exceed 40 hours. <br />Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />• <br />12 <br />
