Commissioner Waters spoke highly of Mr. New and mentioned that he spoke with Mr. Killingsworth and that he supports him as a CM candidate.

Regular City Commission August 14, 2023 Commissioner Ring inquired about voting to offer the job. Mayor Ford explained that the vote will occur once there is an approved contract from the candidate. He asked the Commission for their input on the housing allowance. Commissioner Kelly suggested that it would be inappropriate to withdraw the housing allowance number that has already been offered. Commissioner Waters expressed his understanding of the housing allowance is that it would be separate from the salary. Commissioner Bole explained that his understanding of the housing allowance would be combined into the salary, due to how the Charter stands, and in the future, if CRC decided to come up with something different, the contract could be renegotiated.

It now appears to have been incredibly flawed. Here we are with just 2 weeks left of our ICM's tenure, our candidate of choice has withdrawn and we are starting to "renegotiate" with our second choice. This seems highly unusual-- we were offering a great salary, benefits, etc ... any ideas why we couldn't close the deal? Was he using us to get a better salary at his current position? Were there "back -channel" negotiations taking place that the rest of the CC was not aware of? What role did our ICM and Mayor have in pre -negotiations (negotiating with a candidate prior to a formal offer?) 2 -Why did you consider one applicant, Bill Killingsworth, and are apparently still considering him without CM experience but deny another applicant an interview based on not having CM experience (Drysdale)? This seems hypocritical and an example of poor process, but at this point time to move on. If Killingsworth is chosen, please allow the DCM to help with the transition, since the overlap will be short or non-existent. 3 -How exactly did we come to the decision to raise the salary for this position? And wasn't the housing allowance supposed to come from the original total amount? We are already at the very high end of the range. We were getting applicants for the position BEFORE the suggestion to raise salary was made. As has been stated, we need to establish a process for the hiring of all our important AB City positions, including CM, CA, and CRC members. 4 -How did we get so far into the process without proper CA and HR input to put forth an accurate, legally compliant contract? This is one of the most basic and important jobs of these individuals. I heard the applicant wanted his accrued vacation time carried over to his new position? This is not the norm in my experience. Communication here seems to have broken down. It might be prudent to "regroup" and reconsider the entire process; if so, given the ICM's timeline, please consider having our deputy CM take on the role for the time being to avoid potential chaos. 5 -Though I've not personally had this experience, it has been alleged by 2 separate sources on 2 separate occasions that Mayor Ford used language intimidating citizens who are seeking information regarding the process and timeline of our city's management. If this is true, it would be very inappropriate and extremely concerning. As elected officials, each of you first and foremost work for the citizens of this town. 6 -There was concern raised, rightfully so, about Mr Killingworth's expected longevity with this position. Given his learning curve and the substantial investment we are making, please consider an 18-24 month contract with penalties for early resignation so that we are not doing this again in 9 months. 7 -Any update on the climate expert/engineer's assessment of the impact of removing the trees and placing a large retention pond? Obviously there's a lot going on, but the clock is ticking on this. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK! I'm sure you at least as frustrated and disappointed as the rest of us....
