She manages the city’s greatest asset

A city is an organization with many parts, none more than its Human Resources Department. Keizer’s two-person HR Department, led by Machell DePina,  is busy every day not only keeping records up to date for more than 100 employees but also their health insurance and pension needs.

DePina took Keizer’s Human Resource director position after years serving similar positions with the state of Oregon in both the Employment and Child Services departments.

Personnel policy authority unchanged

Policies for the extent of Keizer City Council authority over administrative personnel decisions remained in place at Monday night's Personnel Policy Committee meeting.
