In response to Mr. Hintz s letter dated July 23, 2022, Administrator Kuhlmann s pay is appropriate. In evaluating salary and performance pay, the City Council is required to consider a number
President Norton, Council Members, and Mayor Wilson. Thank you for the opportunity to restore my professional reputation with this name clearing hearing.
The purpose of this hearing is to restore my professional reputation and good name, both of which were damaged by the Red Wing City Council following the Special Meeting held on February 19, 2021.
I requested to attend that closed session meeting regarding âa proposed agreement and release of all claimsâ as stated in the meeting notice, but was denied; therefore, I was not given an opportunity to address your false claims. During this hearing, I will address 1) Inconsistency from paid administrative leave to termination; 2) Comments made by Council Member Brown in a Star Tribune interview; and 3) Comments made by Council President Norton in the termination letter and interview to media outlets.
