The City Council approved a package of personnel actions that revised job descriptions and adjusted staffing allocations across departments.
Human Resources presented updates to the building and code enforcement supervisor job description after an initial recruitment produced no applicants with both required International Code Council residential and commercial certifications. HR proposed broadening eligible certifications and making the two ICC certifications a condition of employment to be obtained within the first year; the council approved the revision (motion carried 3–1).
Council also approved an updated fleet and facility supervisor job description to add safety and compliance responsibilities for city facilities and fleet; staff said the position is fully funded for FY 2025–26 and the changes do not alter the pay range. The council approved the change (motion carried 3–1).
Separately, the council authorized deleting a vacant project manager allocation and replacing it with a community development project manager classification at the same pay range; staff said this position had been included in the Gallagher class-and-comp study and will remain at the same range. The item was approved (vote recorded 3–1).
Finally, the council approved deleting one vacant police services officer allocation and adding one full‑time animal control officer position (range 57) to better align duties in the police department’s animal control division; staff said the union agreed to the range change and the move produces salary savings. That motion passed 4–0.
Staff emphasized that these changes were reviewed while positions were vacant to streamline recruitment and to reflect evolving departmental needs; councilors asked about labor review and fiscal impacts and staff said there were no new fiscal impacts for FY 2025–26 and that some actions result in salary savings.
