Eye on Oshkosh - City Manager Rebecca Grill and City Councilor Jacob Flo...

On this edition of Eye on Oshkosh, we discuss various city-related issues with Oshkosh City Manager Rebecca Grill in the first segment and City Councilor Jacob Floam in the second segment. Many of the same topics were discussed with each, including the current city manager’s salary increase after only six months on the job and her being allowed to live in Menomonee Falls until her daughter graduates high school. 


They also discussed a reorganization of city departments, why it was done, and the implications of that restructuring; the plan to hire a communications person (Public Information Officer) for the City at a cost of $100,000-$125,000, why this position is being created and whether Grill will remain as the face and voice of the city with the public and media; the budget cut with respect to the Oshkosh Area Humane Society; the recent pay raise for non-represented city employees; the desire for greater transparency by the City; the future home of City Hall; etc.
