Summary
The board approved a personnel requisition to reclassify and promote an existing park maintenance 1 employee to a park maintenance and operations technician 2; the position is not a net new headcount but was not budgeted this fiscal year.
The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners on May 28 approved a personnel requisition to promote an existing parks employee from Park Maintenance 1 to Park Maintenance and Operations Technician 2.
Parks Director Dan Keiser and county staff told the board the action would not add a new position or employee headcount. HR staff explained the promotion is coming before the board because the Park Maintenance 2 classification was not budgeted in the current fiscal year; the county would promote the employee into the 2 and eliminate the 1 position.
Keiser said the employee has strong skills and leadership qualities and performed well on recent evaluations. Commissioner comments praised the employee’s construction and carpentry background. Commissioners discussed the need to ensure promotions align with changes in job duties and classification standards; HR confirmed the promoted employee’s duties would differ from the 1 classification.
Commissioner (unnamed) moved approval of the personnel requisition for a full-time Parks Maintenance and Operations Technician 2; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
The county said the promotion will proceed without adding headcount and the action is administrative in nature.
