..Gf�-' ��
The Parks & Recreation Staff take a great ea pri e n t eir wor .
The result is an over all park system and a variety of programming that
everyone car� be proud of . But , the staff alone do not make for a

the eommunity also play in the parks & reereational process .
I am now asking for your support and approval of a part time Parks
Programmer position . This person is critical to the eonducting of the
Adopt -A- Park program and the updating and writing of tree ordinances
and policies required through the 7ree City USA certification .
although the original request had been for a fiull time position that
was decreased to a part time position during the budget procesS . The �
Parks Programmer position was identified to start on January 1 , 1993 .
Due to discussions relating to Armory staffing this request of the
Council to authorize the hiring process was delayed untii we had
further infarmation as to how it and the Armory staffing could be
coordinated .
Now that the deeision has been made to have the departments of tha
Community Center and Parks & Recreation separate it is appropriate to
proceed with this Parks & Recreation staffing request .
Identified on the attached page is more information relating to this
request . In short summary it should be noted that the major areas that
the Parks Pro�rammer will be assisting in are Adopt -A- Park , ADA and
Safety for parks , playgrounds , and programming , Earth Day , Arbor Day,
Park Improvement Day , Ordinances dealing with Parks and Trees , and
grant research and application .
The starting salary wQuld be � 9 .61 per hour with a movement 'to
� 11 .21 after eighteen months . This would be for a position of
permanent part time of 30 hours per week . This has been approved in the
this osition.
