REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS 5-A Activity Report Period of March 1, 2010 - May 31, 2010 Member McHugh asked about the reinstatement to former position. Executive Secretary Willis explained that this was a reinstatement from demotion. Member McHugh then asked about the reasons for the separations and if they were voluntary. Executive Secretary Willis stated that three were voluntary and one was a death. Member McHugh asked if the fact that three were voluntary resignations was a sign the economy was recovering. Executive Secretary Willis stated that she did not know as the City has received hundreds of applications for jobs the City has opened recently. She stated that the City has opened up Police Officer for entry, academy graduate and laterals and received several hundred applications. The City has also opened up Maintenance Worker and received over 200 applications. Member McHugh asked about the quality of the candidates.
