---------------------------------------------------------------
The City Administrator has approved filling this position.
In view of the current budget crisis, I recommend that this
position be filled with the lower position of Engineering Aide.
This downscoping should result in savings of about $1,000 per
month.
Attached is a proposed Job Description for Engineering Aide.
This position was formerly a member of n survey party, but the
new description is for a general position that could work in
all areas of the Engineering Division. The principal tasks
would be to service the front counter, issue permits and log in
plans submitted for checking, and contract administration.
Current personnel in the Design Section are required to spend a
considerable amount of time responding to requests for service
at the front counter. This new position will relieve the
current personnel from this effort and allow them to
concentrate on more technical duties. Also, this position will
help create more job advancement opportunities.
I envision the salary for this position will be about Range
1087.
Please advise if you will need
