Hill, who has a prior similar assault conviction relating to another school girl outside Otumoetai College, is employed by Tauranga City Aquatics Limited (TCAL) - the council's pools company.
His future employment at the pools is under review.
In a written statement published in yesterday's Bay of Plenty Times, TCAL chief executive Tania Delahunty said: "This matter has been dealt with by the police who TCAL have co-operated fully with.
"As this is an employment issue we cannot discuss the details but we are confident that appropriate steps have been taken.''
The Bay of Plenty Times was unable to contact Ms Delahunty yesterday after several phone calls seeking further comments about Hill's future and TCAL's employee screening tests.
But Mr Crosby said last night that he was satisfied TCAL had taken the appropriate steps in relation to this matter.
He understood TCAL was informed of the possibility of Hill facing charges in relation to the incident and believed management took all the right steps to address any concerns.
"That included fully engaging with the police and the victim's family and standing Hill down until the allegations against him were resolved.''
Mr Crosby said in relation to employee screening checks, if TCAL felt it did not previously have adequately robust systems in place, he was sure changes would be made to improve them.
He said in regards to Hill's future at Otumoetai Pools, that was an employment matter which must be resolved between TCAL and Hill.
"But I expect there will be an appropriate outcome, so the public can feel 100 per cent safe in attending the pools.''
Mr Crosby said he was being kept fully briefed on developments.
