The City went through our Open Enrollment this month. A CIS Benefit Specialist was on on site conducting two open enrollment meetings to help staff understand their benefit options and services. It is a goal of HR to focus on ensuring employees are gaining more knowledge. In the months ahead there will be a focus on educating staff on the 457 MissionSquare retirement program offered through the City.

The Police Chief position went live this month. Screening of candidates will happen in early November. Recruitment developed started for the new Finance Director position. GMP was awarded that contract.

A save the date went out for the Holiday staff appreciation lunch on Thursday, December 14th. This will be a time for the City Manager to review department accomplishments, enjoy a meal together and celebrate as a city-wide team.
