By a 4-1 vote, the city coun- cil disqualified Councilman Jake Hill’s personnel evaluation for City Manager Wendell Johnson after Hill gave Johnson the lowest pos- sible score on each criterion, with- out listing a reason for the scores. Council members were tasked with giving Johnson evaluation scores in two areas: General Performance Evaluation and Supervisory Performance Evaluation. The reporting period for the evaluation was from July 6, 2011- July 5, 2012. Councilman Jake Hill’s scores evaluating Johnson’s performance during the past year were disquali- fied and tossed away, by a council vote of 4-1 at the Sept. 17 city coun- cil meeting, with Hill casting the dissenting vote.
