Carroll city officials have released the agenda for a special council session on Saturday as they conduct final interviews with candidates in the search for a new Carroll city manager. City leaders will open the meeting at 8 a.m. at Carroll City Hall. The only item of business is a closed session under Iowa Code 21.5(1)(i), “To evaluate the professional competency of an individual whose appointment, hiring, performance, or discharge is being considered when necessary to prevent needless and irreparable injury to that individual’s reputation and that individual requests a closed session.” City council members, department heads, and community leaders will form panels to interview the three finalists: Fairfield City Administrator Aaron Kooiker, Glidden City Administrator Brooke Peterson, and Lake View City Administrator Scott Peterson. A hiring announcement is expected relatively quickly after the finalist interviews.
