The Antioch City Council will discuss approving an allocation of funds for three part-time secretary positions to provide administrative support for the city council.
The item will come up at the December 13 city council meeting where the council will authorize a 2023 general fund budget adjustment for three part-time secretaries with a salary range of $45,000 to $65,000.
According to the item:
The part-time secretary positions will provide administrative support to City Council and be Supervised by the City Manager’s Office. A secretary will be assigned as follows: one for the mayor; one for District 1 and 2 councilmembers; and one for the District 3 and District 4 councilmembers. Examples of duties include:
Perform a variety of clerical support services for the city council members, which may include receptionist duties, preparing documents, record keeping and filing.
- Provide information to the public and city staff regarding city or city council activities and functions.
- Receive visitors at public counter, sort, code, file retrieve, and very receipt of a variety of documents.
- Assist with the planning, coordination, and preparation of City Council events.
Item was originally brought up at the April Antioch City Council Meeting when they discussed 9-items and gave a thumbs up or down if they wanted to bring the item back for a future meeting.
ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANTS FOR CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS: Item goes forward in 3-2 vote with Mayor Pro Tem Mike Barbanica and Councilmember Lori Ogorchock against. Antioch Mayor Lamar Thorpe and councilmembers Monica Wilson and Tamisha Torres-Walker in favor.
Thorpe said he was absolutely for this due to the demands and their demands have changed while they are more proactive and not a reactive council. Said they could bring this back when they talk about the budget.
Ogorchock voted “absolutely no”.
All items approved were to be brought back will show up on a future Antioch City Council Agenda. No timelines were provided.
