Because of the economy, his employees have been leaving to pursue better opportunities, <br />and a few of the employees have decided not to continue working in the appraisal business. Rather <br />than trying to replace his staff, he has decided not to renew his assessing contract with Orono or <br />Shorewood. <br />Both Goetten and Jabbour would prefer not to use the County to provide assessing services. <br />Flint suggested trying to encourage Erickson to stay with the City. <br />Moorse suggested having Erickson attend a Council meeting to answer Council questions. <br />Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to authorize staff to begin the process of obtaining a new <br />provider for property assessment services.
