RE: Secretarial Service
Dear Mr. Willson:
Office of the City Clerk
As we discussed on Friday, October 3, 1997, I have posted the Secretarial Assistant position opening
notice at City Hall, both upstairs and downstairs at the Community Center, and I mailed a notice to the
Brookdale Library for posting. Application packets are available, including the City's Business Ethics
Policy.
With regard to your inquiry pertaining to a secretarial service, the City previously had a contract
agreement with Timesaver Off Site Secretarial Service, 320 East Main Street, Anoka, MN, 55303, to
take minutes at the City Council meetings (the Planning Commission still has a contract with
TimeSaver). The City paid $21.00 per hour and $9.25 per page. We had a written contract agreement
with TimeSaver outlining our needs and expectations. Should you need any additional information,
please feel free to call me at 569 -3306.
Sincerely,
L
