II. Order of Business
• Discussion on Fire Chief Replacement Process
City Manager Bob Kiely indicated to the Committee that based on feedback received from Fire
Department employees, Chief Hosking and the 360 evaluations, Jeff Howell is the only viable internal
candidate for the Fire Chief position. Therefore, it is the City Manager's recommendation that we
conduct an outside search.
Considerable discussion followed regarding Jeff s readiness to assume the Fire Chief position, and the
risks versus the advantages of conducting an outside search. Alderman Reynolds stated that he leans to
appointing Jeff to the job, but he can agree to an outside search with us encouraging Jeff to apply for the
position. The rest of the committee agreed with the recommendation to conduct on outside search.
