With the retirement of George Romo on July 31, 1993 we will be eft with a
void in the maintenance department with emphasis in the utility division.
George is currently a level II maintenance worker. The level II person
works more independently with little direct supervision. This position is
expected to be primarily assigned to the utility division, though the
successful candidate will also be required to have the ability to aperate
equipment.
The major areas of accountability will be in Wastewater Collection
systems and Water Storage and Distribution Systems. Within the Wastewater
system this person will be expected to perform maintenance repair,
replacement and cleaning of both sanitary and storm sewer facilities and
equipment. This would include lift stations, sewer pipes, manhole
structures and inlet outlet structures. Within the Water system this
person would be expected to maintain, repair, replace aIl elements of the
storage and distribution system. This would include well houses, pumps,
watermains, hydrants, valves watermeters, etc. In both categories the
person would be required to perform repairs af broken lines, street
washouts or cave-ins or aacident damaged components. Equipment they would
need ta be capable of running includes rodders, jetters, generators,
chemical mixers and injectors, tractors, laaders, and trucks .
In addition to the minimum requirements of a high school diploma or GED
the successful candidate must have two years experience with equipment
operation for a municipality and either a vocational certificate in water
and sewer operation or a combination of education and experience in utility
operations totaling three years . A class C Water Operators license and
class SC Sewer license will be required so that the person will be
qualified to take their turn as a department s�andby person on 24 hour
call . This person may be required to provide on-the-job direction to
seasonal or temporary employees in certain job related situations.
This position is not an entry level position. It replaces an experienced
person who performed man�r duties independently. We are looking for another
experienced person who with little orientation can work as independently as
we need that person to perform.

of a level II Maintenance Worker for the Utility Division and to proceed _
