DISCUSSION RE: CITY MANAGER'S EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT

called the meeting. Commissioner Anderson said he felt it would be prudent to discuss the
City Manager's contract in order to determine if the majority of this body wished to alter it in
any way or if it continues to be acceptable as it is. His comments led to a discussion about the
evaluation process and the manner in which Mr. Shapiro's evaluation would be handled this
year. Consensus was reached for each elected official to present his/her evaluation to Mr.
Shapiro privately and discuss it with him within the next few weeks. Upon completion of this
stage, Mr. Shapiro will provide copies of the evaluations to the elected officials and they will
then set a date to discuss the contract. All of this is to be completed within 30 days.
