W! '/1 MEMORANDUM
TO: Village Council
FROM: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager-7—
DATE: March 3 I, 1999
SUBJECT: Appointment of Village Officers; Agenda Item
Section 2.07 of the Village Charter requires the Village Council to appoint
Village officers at the regular meeting subsequent to the date of the annual
election. The applicable Village officers are the Village Manager and the
Village Clerk.
In accordance with my Employment Agreement with the Village, on May 7,
2000, I provided the Village Council with a written resignation effective
May I, 2000. Since Section 2.07 of the Charter states that "the Village
Council shall appoint the Village officers for a term of one year and until
their successor shall be appointed and qualified" it is respectfully
recommended to you that you reappoint me, Thomas G. Bradford, as
Village Manager through and including April 30, 2000. Effective May I,
2000, it is my recommendation that you appoint Joann Manganiello as the
Acting Village Manager. This would be in compliance with Section 2.07
because Ms. Manganiello would be my successor who was appointed and
qualified effective immediately following the date of my last day of
appointment by the Village Council.
The Village Council does not know with any certainty how long it will be
until a new Village Manager is brought on board. It is estimated to take at
least 3 months and maybe more until such time as the new Village Manager
starts work in Tequesta. Due to the unknown length of time that the
Acting Village Manager will serve in that position, it is recommended,
effective May I, 2000, that Ms. Manganiello's annual salary be increased to
$75,000 per year for the duration of the time in which she serves as Acting
Village Manager. Likewise, because the job requires the 24-hour availability
of an automobile, it is also recommended that Ms. Manganiello be provided
with a $400 a month automobile allowance. These figures are less than
that paid to me and, keep in mind, she must perform her Village Clerk
duties during this same time. In all probability, Ms. Manganiello will need to
bring in a contractual Assistant Village Manager to work during this interim
period to ensure all of the functions of the Village Manager's office are
covered. There are several persons available for such in this region, some
of whom may apply for the permanent Village Manager position.
In addition to the above referenced recommendations, it is also
recommended that you reappoint Joann Manganiello as Village Clerk, as
she has continued to do an excellent job for Tequesta in managing the
public records and administering the municipal election and associated
procedures.
