Authorize Posting & Advertising - Maintenance Level I Position � t CITY OF ROSBNIUUNT EXECUTIVE SLTMMARY FOR ACTION CITY CQUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 3, 1993 AGENDA ZTEM: Authorization for Posting and AGENDA 5ECTIONs Advertising for a Maintenance Level I Position Old Business PREPARED BY: Ron Wasmund AGENDA NO. Director of Public Works/ Building Official �� ATTACffi�NTS; Job I7escription APP D . This item is brought back to you per your direction. This item is a request to start the process of hiring a Mai tenance Leve1 I person. This is a new position budgeted for in the 1993 Public Works operating budget . This position is budgeted to start in October of 1993 . T am proposing to adhere to this scheduled starting date of October but to start the process now. By starting now I can be assured to have the process completed by October. This position would primarily be assigned to the street maintenance division. This is the first position requested in the street ma.intenance division since 1990 . We have added 6. 61 miles of roadway to aur system as of 12/31�92 . In addition we have delayed street reconstruction projects for the development of an assessment policy and other variaus reasons. This results in further degradation of the streets identified in the CIP for reconstruction. We must continue to maintain these streets to the satisfaction of the public that lives along those streets. We currently have three full time employees assigned ta the street maintenance area. In the summer we hire three part-time seasonal employees for a maximum of 100 days. They assist with mowing, street pa�ching and general ma.inten.ance activities however they reguire constant supervision. With three full time when one is grading our eighteen miles of gravel weekly, one is sweeping streets, painting curbs and crosswalks, and driving truck for the patching crew, it leaves the one other person ta run the patching crew. The myriad of other general mainten.ance items such as sign installation, rural ditch mowing, gravel shouldering, pond pumping, etc always require that a full time person to be pul.led from the task they would normally be performing. Tn the past we have be�n able to assist the Park Maintenance crew with projects however in the last two to three years we have not been able to do that . I feel this position is necessary and ask for your support for the f illing of it .
