interview questions what I want to do is go through and uh 10 00:01:30,759 --> 00:01:41,119 kind of choose I don't know eight to 10 good questions for the first round of 11 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:45,560 interviews that uh we will do Monday Tuesday and Wednesday with the 12 00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:51,719 applicants and I'd like to do the same ones obviously for each individual just 13 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:54,079 so we can get a read on them and then uh what'll happen after that is we'll 14 00:01:53,079 --> 00:02:00,680 narrow it down uh hopefully to some good qualified 15 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:06,680 candidates and then uh we will be one of the interview processes and then I will 16 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:12,760 have some Town staff like a committee uh do interview questions as 17 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:18,640 well so um if you guys look through those 18 00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:23,640 let's choose I don't know eight to 10 of them the time slot is set at an hour um 19 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,920 for the interview like if it goes over it goes 20 00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:33,239 over a little bit but I'd like to try to keep it to that 21 00:02:30,519 --> 00:02:33,239 for that first 22 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:45,920 round I think one the first question should be you know what makes you want 23 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:52,480 to apply to be the town manager for wigin Colorado yeah what's the 24 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,480 motivation for it yeah 25 00:03:01,959 --> 00:03:13,120 or that even that number two on that first sample 26 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,120 yeah number eight 27 00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:22,280 also yeah that's an important one yeah 28 00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:51,680 yeah I think that number eight on the one and number seven on the other pretty 29 00:03:49,239 --> 00:03:51,680 much the 30 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,760 same e 31 00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:50,400 number 25 on which one 25 32 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:57,960 on describe your experience with grant writing and securing funding for 33 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,520 municipal projects that one I love it yeah yeah 34 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:11,840 I think we should ask some kind of question about water sewer yeah looking 35 00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:15,199 for it yeah and I and I don't know if there's an exact question in here 36 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:21,199 pertaining to that but maybe we could think of a good well-rounded 37 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:25,360 question um because I don't know if there's exactly I didn't think I saw one 38 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:30,039 number nine it talks about uh infrastructure 39 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:33,600 projects first page number nine prze infrastructure yeah prioritize such as 40 00:05:32,039 --> 00:05:39,000 Road repairs of facility upgrades you can always throw water and sewer in 41 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:43,680 there thoughts about that because it all falls underneath the 42 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,680 same category infrastructure projects yeah 43 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:19,440 when we get a new Town Administrator are we going to make him be an 44 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:22,720 interm like like on a probation for a 45 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:32,759 year so I don't I don't think that's how it's 46 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:37,599 advertised cuz I think when you guys did it last time it was advertised or you 47 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:40,960 advertised for an interim so we had the option to do 48 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:46,160 that um and I mean I'm not I'm 49 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:51,479 just I don't know I don't know necessarily if that's 50 00:06:54,080 --> 00:07:02,120 needed well we got to put him on some kind of trial for a while just to see 51 00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:07,639 and and when I say that he he still can be the Town Administrator but I 52 00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:10,720 hope I hope we can see further ahead than what we seen with 53 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:21,960 Tom yeah I I don't know it's just a thought 54 00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:21,960 it's a yeah no 55 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:38,039 yeah cuz I'm not sure how Tom's or how the 56 00:07:34,039 --> 00:07:42,759 previous interim worked you you've seen that 57 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:48,919 contract didn't it didn't you so it well there there for a long time it did 58 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:54,039 say interm yeah and then he went to yeah and then he went to the 59 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:58,080 actual but but I don't know I can't remember cuz I you guys at that time 60 00:07:56,599 --> 00:08:05,759 were looking for an interim is how you advertised it yeah 61 00:08:02,919 --> 00:08:10,639 and we didn't advertise it that way this time 62 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:15,879 um I think there's some stuff we could probably put like in the 63 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:22,720 contract that would help or help 64 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:27,759 us but I think with we and we've had two more people 65 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:32,959 apply um so we have 10 in total no nine cuz 66 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:38,479 one backed out so I think even from you know 67 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:44,839 looking at a lot of the resumes I think we have a really good pool of candidates 68 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:47,839 yeah whether they're local or out of state 69 00:08:49,399 --> 00:09:01,279 right I don't want to see the same contract rode up for whoever we hire Tom 70 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,279 and Paul yeah 71 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:28,000 yeah I like Nicole's questions explain explain me explain me 72 00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:34,920 how do you deal with when you're overwhelmed or under for me yeah you 73 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,920 quit and go to work for Fort 74 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:46,279 Mor that's funny what's the truth it's the truth 75 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,279 even like number 76 00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:52,760 34 I don't know it's a pretty decent question just to see where they 77 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:04,640 go cuz every every town manager is going to come in with their own 78 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:07,720 priority well I guess we got to be careful how we ask that one because if 79 00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:11,880 it's somebody who's not from here they don't know Town very well but if you 80 00:10:09,839 --> 00:10:17,839 know a small town you know a small town yeah yeah there there are some 81 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:24,440 questions on here that so like the one guy actually came out here and drove 82 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:31,320 around yeah so which yeah yeah you gota be careful when you 83 00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:31,320 ask that one that's all I'm saying 84 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:39,560 because which guy came out was it the guy from Arizona or Jackson or Illinois 85 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:42,639 or the guy that withdrew oh from Longmont yeah oh 86 00:10:43,279 --> 00:10:48,320 yeah does that explain why he with 87 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:56,639 Drew hey we got a lot going on right now and 88 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,639 some people can't handle 89 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:07,399 it and he's he was retired yeah so I don't I don't 90 00:11:04,079 --> 00:11:12,040 necessarily blame him I guess I don't no that's a lot to do if you're retired I 91 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:16,040 think no I yeah I agree isn't like it's a part-time 92 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:24,200 job I think 18 on the sample one is a pretty good 93 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:33,880 question yeah but also so 94 00:11:30,519 --> 00:11:38,000 I if you're applying for a job I know you can't do a ton of 95 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:43,320 research about Wiggins online but if you're applying to run the 96 00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:48,200 town you should be doing some kind of research I would agree especially at the 97 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:52,240 price range we have set at what I'm to think so that's why I'm almost tempted 98 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:56,360 to ask that priority question just to see who's done the research and what 99 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:00,839 they know we know one candidate for sure is going to have a well there's working 100 00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:05,000 knowledge yeah well there's probably three of them that should 101 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:11,639 true one for sure yeah so two for sure two for sure 102 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:17,800 true Nick Nathan and CH yeah yeah for sure exactly and I hey if I was applying 103 00:12:15,199 --> 00:12:21,560 for a job that of this scope I would be doing my research oh yeah absolutely you 104 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:25,959 need to know what you're stepping into yeah as best you can yeah 105 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:37,000 and to me that just shows kind of 106 00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:44,959 your dedication or your uh well how you view a how you view 107 00:12:40,519 --> 00:12:44,959 commitment to yeah commitment position I 108 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:58,800 agree like maybe maybe for the local guys we just 109 00:12:57,199 --> 00:13:02,320 ask them I would like to ask them number 19 110 00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:08,079 just the local guys yeah I would agree with 111 00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:10,320 that just to see what they what how they view 112 00:13:10,399 --> 00:13:16,959 it I put local only just to because they they've been 113 00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:20,399 submerged in it they have working knowledge of it to 114 00:13:19,399 --> 00:13:23,399 a certain extent 115 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:30,839 yeah so 25 116 00:13:51,120 --> 00:14:00,519 is that 25 is that on the colds uh yeah yeah that's one of my 117 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,320 questions yeah yeah I knew you'd like that one 118 00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:18,240 yeah and nobody else is going to know any anything about augmentation or any 119 00:14:12,839 --> 00:14:25,160 of that yeah not even even Nathan even he lives in enclosed Basin he's never I 120 00:14:22,199 --> 00:14:29,759 mean he ibly talks to people about it well you probably know with Planning and 121 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:32,079 Zoning maybe some I don't 122 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:41,480 know I like question 21 on Nicole's about handling employee performances 123 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:47,000 just handling employee issues yeah yeah no I think that's a 124 00:14:45,199 --> 00:14:49,440 good question because everyone reports up to 125 00:14:50,360 --> 00:15:01,040 them where did the one go about priorities I lost it 126 00:14:56,959 --> 00:15:01,040 34 yes 34 127 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:08,839 so we have one two three four 128 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:21,800 five and then once we choose the eight or 10 let's number them that way yeah 129 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:26,000 that way we can have our start at number one like hey this is our number one 130 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:30,120 question I'm just going to listen no you're you're going to ask one 131 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:34,120 of the question I know which one's going to ask I want 132 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:37,720 each board member to ask question that's that's all that's all Bruce right there 133 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,920 grant writing I'm gonna stand over here going 134 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:47,199 205 what about 16 when the money goes short yeah I saw that one 135 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:56,560 too you just deal with it when it happens yeah there was another one I saw 136 00:15:53,880 --> 00:16:03,920 about balancing the budget where was it oh about the budget 137 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:09,440 yeah I saw that one on the sample number 13 in the 138 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:15,560 budget are process oh yeah number 16 has something 139 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:19,199 about the budget but I know I seen the one that you was looking 140 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:51,880 for is a little sensitive on the sample thing articulate what you believe is the 141 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:55,560 ideal relationship between board and manager I do like that 142 00:16:56,399 --> 00:17:04,800 one you got uncover the employees the budget authorities your Authority 143 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:20,880 MH I always like and it's usually not on these I always like a question of if you 144 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:26,679 could have three core values for the town what 145 00:17:24,559 --> 00:17:30,840 would they be like as a 146 00:17:30,919 --> 00:17:38,000 group like for your for the town staff if you could have core values for Town 147 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:42,000 staff what would they what would your core values be be an example if they 148 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:45,280 said what would be an example well if they don't know what 149 00:17:43,679 --> 00:17:50,679 core values are then see what you were thinking 150 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:58,640 yeah I just I don't know I like to see 151 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:58,640 that well I think I asked you that 152 00:18:00,159 --> 00:18:08,200 I I ask pretty much everybody that because I want to see what they list is 153 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:14,120 communication on there Integrity on there commitment theft leadership K like 154 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:18,600 what what would your core values be yeah it's 155 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:22,520 true you know well it's not designed to be simple interview here we're 156 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:26,200 interviewing for yeah a high level position that yeah you 157 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:33,080 know and you know it might come to the point 158 00:18:30,039 --> 00:18:38,760 where it's going to be tough to have a decision without having like a second 159 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:43,600 interview or something it's true I mean well there's going to be a second 160 00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:46,240 interview oh okay yeah well you're the mayor 161 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,840 that's I'm just what people tell me 162 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,039 how many questions we got so far 163 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Chris um one two three 164 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,440 four five six 165 00:19:12,679 --> 00:19:22,240 seven we've got seven and then eight for local that might be F that might be 166 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:24,880 good I am going to think of the question for core 167 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:32,000 values since we have the reputation of this down not getting along very many 168 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:39,880 people about 12 and 14 combination on the goals how you going to manage 169 00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:42,200 relationships U for operation with another 170 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,600 municipality yeah one I thought of was Castle 171 00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:57,120 Rock yeah be a butthead about things that 172 00:19:54,600 --> 00:20:02,080 level of expertise I'm curious to see how many of the candidates possess 173 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:05,400 something along those lines because that takes a special person who knows who's 174 00:20:04,679 --> 00:20:11,000 been in town leadership in some 175 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:15,960 capacity and they know the ins and outs of of working 176 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:19,240 that whether it's politically or whether it's working as system in your favor or 177 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:26,280 something like that so I'm curious to see how many of our C our our candidates 178 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:29,480 possess that working knowledge of that that situation 179 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:35,080 scars it's like anything else it's not necessarily what you know it's who you 180 00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:38,559 know in certain cases we know that well in small town it's definitely who you 181 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:43,000 know oh no doubt about that but when you're working with other other towns 182 00:20:40,360 --> 00:20:43,000 too 183 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:54,799 yeah yeah 14 I think would cover a lot of that 184 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:59,240 yeah all right what would be your number one question what appeals you about a 185 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,799 town and why do you you want to be part of the town's 186 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:12,000 future I think your core value question should be number one 187 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:16,559 yeah what the heck so I put if you had to if you had to choose Three core 188 00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:21,039 values for Town staff and yourself what would they be and 189 00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:27,840 why that sound okay yeah it sounds good yeah all 190 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,840 right put some on notice 191 00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:38,320 okay so number one number two what appeals you about 192 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:43,279 town and why do you want to be a part of the town's 193 00:21:40,279 --> 00:21:43,279 future 194 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,600 yeah number 195 00:21:49,919 --> 00:21:54,400 three uh describe your experience with grant 196 00:21:55,320 --> 00:22:07,960 writing that number 25 yeah yeah that's the Bruce question y number 197 00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:07,960 four if hired what would be your top 198 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:24,960 priority you guys all right with that one 199 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:44,520 so if you look at the sample one number four number eight are almost they're 200 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:48,720 real similar do we just choose one of 201 00:22:51,320 --> 00:23:00,440 those I think number Eight's a better question I do too cuz then it involves 202 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,440 policies that are unpopular town 203 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:06,840 mhm because how will some of those guys know what the top priority of our town 204 00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:10,760 would be if they've never been here well that's why I want to see if they did 205 00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:10,760 research 206 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:19,480 research I don't like that question but that's just me I love 207 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:24,080 it I don't know why you can agree to disagree but I I think you're gonna get 208 00:23:21,120 --> 00:23:30,360 answers that you're that are I don't know I I somebody comes in here and 209 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:36,159 tells me they want to build a thousand houses I'm instantly going to set their 210 00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:39,360 resume aside right well there's that but yeah like I want to know what your top 211 00:23:37,919 --> 00:23:45,840 priority like what because as a town manager you get 212 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:49,559 to decide a lot you do so what do you what what's your priority but this is 213 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,360 based on Research he's done and not actually getting nuts and bolts of it 214 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:59,640 because that could change that likely will 215 00:23:55,320 --> 00:24:04,000 change and if he if a candidate says well you know I don't exactly know 216 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:09,320 what's going on in town but I would associate it with the top 217 00:24:07,159 --> 00:24:13,960 what you know whatever it wouldn't bother 218 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:18,400 me it's just that everybody's going to have a rock yard they put up five more 219 00:24:16,039 --> 00:24:22,679 house 500 more houses everybody's going to have a rocket because we ain't got 220 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:28,520 the water yeah we just don't and I know Tom kept saying oh we got all kinds of 221 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:34,120 water yeah with Castel Rock going in you know filling our depletions yeah for 222 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:40,559 72,000 a year well so we have water we just don't have retention to get the 223 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:45,640 credits that's why we have Castle Rock I know well so if we built retention that 224 00:24:43,399 --> 00:24:49,880 way we do we got more homes in here though we ain't going to have enough 225 00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:55,919 water well we need another water tower we just need one should have 226 00:24:52,919 --> 00:24:59,399 should have had the water tower my mind yeah we need that water tower bad with 227 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:04,399 this process start seven years ago for that eight okay well beyond time that 228 00:25:02,279 --> 00:25:08,120 thing should have been done up and we shouldn't even having a conversation at 229 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:12,799 this stage of the game yeah we should be talking about the second it's called 230 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:16,880 procrastination no it's it's just it's just yeah it's extreme procrastination 231 00:25:15,039 --> 00:25:22,279 that's the problem I want to ask that question 232 00:25:18,039 --> 00:25:28,520 but which one what's your opinion on procrastination yeah but there's another 233 00:25:24,679 --> 00:25:33,720 question about like it because that's my biggest thing is 234 00:25:30,159 --> 00:25:41,720 procrastination like I I have my faults but I do too well and I 235 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:48,039 mean Tom was a good person for being a person yeah but I think I think he was 236 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:54,320 overwhelmed I really do and that's what he always give as an excuse when the 237 00:25:50,760 --> 00:26:00,120 employees would quit they just got overwhelmed but I don't know how how 238 00:25:57,399 --> 00:26:05,039 many grants did you brightest zero that I know 239 00:26:02,679 --> 00:26:10,159 of yeah because that going underneath the 240 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:13,960 railroad tracks Paul wrote that one that was done a long time ago you even look 241 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:19,760 at like when we were discussing you know capital projects like like uh third and 242 00:26:17,919 --> 00:26:22,480 Chapman Chapman and all that stuff I mean here we are in May and we haven't 243 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,200 even made a plan together for even though we talked about it as a board at 244 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:28,880 the beginning of the year what are you waiting for if you think about it 245 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:35,279 engineers month we had a meeting with 246 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:40,520 the school school board yeah and we was going to have a meeting every six months 247 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:44,760 that hasn't happened I don't know it didn't happen we had one was it last 248 00:26:42,559 --> 00:26:50,960 July a year ago it was it was last July so we had 249 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:55,200 somebody who I agree Tom is great as a person I like Tom as a person yes I do 250 00:26:53,240 --> 00:27:00,240 too but I don't know if it's overwhelmed or lack of organization let's just stay 251 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,240 on track I got it 252 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:08,000 it's easy to cuss and discuss I know um so question number four is which 253 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,960 one question number four what are we using as question number 254 00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:17,720 four as a town manager explain how you would balance 255 00:27:15,159 --> 00:27:22,840 administrating Board of Trustees or do you want to 256 00:27:19,399 --> 00:27:28,240 do can you provide a successful collaboration example of a 257 00:27:25,159 --> 00:27:31,600 collaboration what's your top priority what's your approach to employee 258 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:38,480 performance I'd say successful collaboration on 259 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,480 that number four 260 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:45,960 yeah okay five I would tie that in with the one how do you prioritize infrastru 261 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:50,039 infrastructure projects such as Road repairs and facility upgrades because 262 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:55,399 that kind of which one was that number nine on the Nikki I 263 00:27:52,679 --> 00:27:59,760 believe Nicole's sorry oh yeah I have it right yeah because you can kind of 264 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:04,440 parlay one into the other I think in that instance that is an interesting 265 00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:15,000 question so excellent so I'm going to put how do 266 00:28:13,120 --> 00:28:19,360 you prioritize infrastructure projects such as Road repairs or facility 267 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:28,240 upgrades to 268 00:28:21,159 --> 00:28:28,240 Water and Sewer there you go 269 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,320 okay number 270 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:53,320 six we ask the Staffing questions and on like like the 21 on Nicole's the 271 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,320 approach to employee performance 272 00:28:54,080 --> 00:29:03,000 evaluations you want to save that for later I'd like to save that if if we 273 00:28:58,559 --> 00:29:03,000 don't get to it i' use that the second 274 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:14,519 time so what about number eight yeah that's number six 275 00:29:11,519 --> 00:29:14,519 yeah 276 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,760 um seven 277 00:29:28,279 --> 00:29:35,000 you want to do question four on the sample as far as the second approach too 278 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:38,159 between employees and board members know on number four says 279 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:44,080 articulate what you believe is the relationship between the board Intel 280 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:50,640 manager you want to keep that to the second 281 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:53,480 round yeah because number eight kind of goes into 282 00:29:55,039 --> 00:30:01,679 that number 14 on those samples might not be bad in what ways do you see 283 00:29:58,679 --> 00:30:01,679 yourself being involved in the 284 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:11,120 community it can be a Hands-On type person are we going to be kind of 285 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,120 a you 286 00:30:15,399 --> 00:30:22,159 know it's either 14 or 15 evaluate needs and wants of town 287 00:30:31,039 --> 00:30:38,360 what 15 on the coals sorry 15 on the samples on Sample 288 00:30:36,679 --> 00:30:44,559 questions how would you go about evaluating the needs and wants of the 289 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,559 town because that can be 290 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:50,840 tricky priority people won't let him know well they always 291 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:59,480 will just ask our mayor I like 15 on Nico's 292 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:11,679 there you go that's a good one too iability 293 00:31:07,919 --> 00:31:15,120 which one 15 on Nicole on Nicole's how do you ensure transparency and 294 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,120 accountability in town operations 295 00:31:22,919 --> 00:31:31,720 yeah I mean there's a lot of good questions here yeah and we need to know 296 00:31:27,919 --> 00:31:31,720 narrow it down to some I know it's it's 297 00:31:32,039 --> 00:31:37,480 just well and honestly through discussion some of these other questions 298 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:41,039 might just present themselves we can have them expand upon a point of that 299 00:31:54,760 --> 00:32:04,080 too did we advertise for a town man or Town 300 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:08,720 Administrator Town manager it's I think it falls into the same category I know 301 00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:15,679 but some people are administrators and some some of them are managers no I 302 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,679 think this a town manager 303 00:32:28,039 --> 00:32:35,559 been Town manager because that's what m MH Melinda's got first question 304 00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:46,480 yeah all right what's going to be question number 305 00:32:50,519 --> 00:32:57,799 seven transpar account transparency and accountability in operations 306 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,240 okay and 307 00:33:09,559 --> 00:33:14,039 then think of one question 308 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:21,120 for I want to say the out of state people and then number 19 would be 309 00:33:18,559 --> 00:33:25,399 number eight for local people 310 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:31,200 right on the sample 311 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:39,320 form in your view what is the biggest challenge for the town and what did your 312 00:33:36,679 --> 00:33:44,440 plan to change the challenge or turn it into an 313 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,440 opportunity think that's a good 314 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:59,720 question oh you could counter that question with what would be your top 315 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,720 priority for the out of Staters true 316 00:34:01,279 --> 00:34:08,159 so let's make number what is your top priority number eight even just ask the 317 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:12,919 out of state or guys too I mean what so tell me what you know about Wiggins 318 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:17,879 Colorado well I think number 319 00:34:14,919 --> 00:34:20,399 two they may go down that path what appeals you about the town and why do 320 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:23,119 you want to be a part of the town's future yeah that's 321 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:31,440 true that that's a good question yeah because they're going to say well we 322 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:36,960 really haven't you know we be known then we'll know if they're been doing their 323 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,960 re yeah yeah it's 324 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:49,879 true so 34 number8 325 00:34:51,879 --> 00:34:58,320 yeah um so 326 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:07,280 more I thought about it with uh Steve backing out I'm going 327 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:14,200 to leave that Gap there that'll either allow us to utilize 328 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:19,800 that time with this out of Stater or we could 329 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:22,960 discuss that application or some previous ones just go over 330 00:35:23,839 --> 00:35:31,359 some because I've already I don't want to change the time on him 331 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:38,240 yeah keep it how it is so I thought about that once I got 332 00:35:33,839 --> 00:35:41,560 home because he's he's an hour behind us for 333 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:51,920 Arizona um so once we do the interview 334 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:58,240 process hopefully we can narrow it down to however many three four whatever the 335 00:35:56,359 --> 00:36:03,920 ones that you know really stick out to us that we can have a second interview 336 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:09,640 with and then I would like to do that what did I tell you the July 8th 337 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:14,200 through 12th because you're gone that next week 338 00:36:12,079 --> 00:36:17,920 right for uh 339 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:22,480 training okay so I'd like to we'll do the 340 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:28,280

it that week and we can do probably just do one a night 345 00:36:47,720 --> 00:36:54,720 because they may last I don't know that'll be the second interview so it 346 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:59,520 might take a little bit longer if we go you kind of get into more depth on those 347 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,520 anyway yeah yeah 348 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:07,440 and we could schedule it where like you guys could go first and then we could go 349 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,440 after you 350 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:17,960 so that work for everybody um continue to look through 351 00:37:15,760
