GENERAL FUND
1. Landscape Inspector II (Webb, Adam) - Promotion
Public Works
The real property section must provide landscape inspection services on all landscape
maintenance assessment districts (27) as well as administer all of the maintenance
contracts and contract change orders. Two (2) positions are budgeted and we are
attempting to fill the Landscape Inspector II position. The current proposal is to promote
the incumbent Landscape Inspector I to the II position and then use the list that exists for
the II to fill the I position. There is no back up for vacations and/or sick leave leaving
the department and city without landscape inspections.
The position is fully funded from assessment district funds (no impact on general fund).
There is a minimum of 36% savings using city staff; and, contract providers are not able
to supply all of the services nor maintain city records. Additionally, contract providers
are unable to handle or answer the majority of questions from the public relative to
maintenance contracts in the assessment districts.
The level of inspection in the districts is reflected in the overall appearance of the district
and the satisfaction of those assessed.
2. Traffic Signal Electrician II (Chavez Anthony A ) - Promotion
Public Works
The promotion of the Street Lighting Electrician to Traffic Signal Electrician II is based
on the signal section having four (4) electricians to maintain and repair 230 traffic
signals. Service is provided 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A recent vacancy has left
only three (3) electricians for the traffic signals. One of the Street Light Electricians,
using his own time, has completed the necessary training and testing for certification to
the Traffic Signal Electrician position and this promotion fills a current vacant position.
City staff provides the service at 50% less than contract services, completes more variety
of work and responds in 20 minutes as opposed to two hours, to emergencies. A staff
of three cannot continue to provide 24-hour service without excessive overtime and
fatigue.
