The LaFollette City Council is doing its part to drive down the unemployment rate.

At Monday’s workshop five candidates were presented for full time employment in three city departments.

Fire Chief Gary Byrd requested the group consider Shawn McGlone to fill a full time fire fighter position within the department.  

According to Byrd, McGlone has worked as an auxiliary fire fighter with LFD for a year and money is available in the budget to hire him at a salary of $22,800.
