| | Subject: | Adoption of a Resolution reappointing a City Treasurer and appointing an Interim Deputy City Treasurer. (Action Item) | Date: | 9/11/2018 |
|
| | | | | | | | OBJECTIVE
The City of Garden Grove City Council is requested to adopt the attached Resolution re-appointing Laura J. Stover, Human Resources Director, as City Treasurer and, appointing Scott C. Stiles, City Manager, as Interim Deputy City Treasurer. |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
Many of the duties of the City Treasurer are in fact performed under the jurisdiction of the City’s Finance Department, with the City Treasurer primarily responsible for the co-signing of checks and warrants, as well as the reconciliation of the bank statements. It is prudent that the City continues to maintain a separate treasurer function that provides a proper financial check and balance system.
The current Deputy City Treasurer, Kingsley Okereke, is retiring as of September 27, 2018, making it necessary to appoint a new Deputy City Treasurer. The recruitment and placement of a new Finance Director will take some time. Hence in the interim, it is recommended that City Manager Scott C. Stiles be appointed as the interim Deputy City Treasurer pending the appointment of a new Finance Director.

- Adopt the Resolution re-appointing Laura J. Stover, Human Resources Director, as City Treasurer, and appointing Scott C. Stiles, City Manager, as Interim Deputy City Treasurer.
