Both the Nisswa and Pequot Lakes city councils met in closed sessions last week for preliminary consideration of allegations or charges against an employee.
The Nisswa City Council met Wednesday, March 11, at city hall to discuss allegations that police officer Jason Boelter had used a city-authorized and paid for cell phone for personal use, which is a violation of city policy.
The council agreed Boelter will forfeit 200 hours of vacation time, serve 100 hours of unpaid suspension, have no contact with subjects on or off duty (directly or indirectly) and will submit to random searches of all department-issued electronic data devices and disclose all passwords to access such devices.
The Pequot Lakes City Council met Thursday, March 12, at city hall to discuss allegations against office manager Jeanyne Alderson.
The council took no action, and no further information was available.
