He summarized the preceding meeting ' s discussion on the proposed staff aide for the Housing Concerns Committee , and reported that the recommendation of the Committee was made to the City Council and was approved . The effect of the Council action would be to amend the City' s application that had previously been filed under the provisions of the Emergency Employment Act for either an additional position or a modification in the proposed positions . City Manager Fales reported that the City had received approval from EEA to amend the application and that we can recruit any time . The amendment consisted of substituting the housing staff aide for two clerical aides with a salary range of $894 to $986 per month . He also reported that a job description had been prepared in draft form by the Personnel Department , and these were distributed to the Committee for their consideration . 4 Mr . Floyd asked for a clarification of what reservations the City Council might have had on having a housing aide whether or not he could be employed under EEA . Chairman Keckley responded that the City Council was advised that the Committee would come back with the same request for a full-time staff aide even if it could not proceed under EEA . City Manager Fales said that all " ifs " are now removed . • Chairman Keckley asked for comments on the job specifications and started with the title ; i . e . , whether the title should be "Community Relations Specialist" , "Community Housing Specialist" , or "Community Redevelopment Specialist" . City Manager Fales saw this person starting with the Housing Committee ' s main concerns , but in the future , expanding into the broader field of redevelopment housing . - MINUTES HOUSING CONCERNS COMMITTEE OCTOBER 27 , 1971 PAGE 1 OF 3
