Re: Hiring Tennis Instructor for Summer 2014 Recreation Program
Background:
For the past several years, we have hired tennis instructors as recommended by the Forest Lake
High School varsity tennis coach. This year, Staff recruited a Scandia resident who is also on the
Forest Lake High School varsity tennis team.
Issue:
Who should the Council hire for the tennis instructor position?
Proposal Details:
Staff is recommending Erika Fischer be hired as the tennis instructor at a rate of $12.25 per hour.
Erika Fischer is a member of the Forest Lake varsity tennis team and will be attending 11 th grade
this fall. Erika Fischer lives in Scandia, is on the A honor roll at Forest Lake High School, is an
active member of her church, and has assisted coaching during girls C-squad tennis tryouts.
Fiscal Impact:
The 2014 pay rate for the position was set at $12.25 per hour. The tennis camp is Monday
through Thursday for one hour a day for four sessions. The budget is sufficient to cover the
program.
Options:
1) Approve hiring Erika Fischer at a rate of $12.25 per hour for the tennis instructor
position.
2) Approve hiring Erika Fischer at a different rate of pay for the tennis instructor position.
3) Approve hiring another instructor for the tennis instructor position.
Recommendation:
Option 1.
