Council approves hiring-freeze exception for Parks & Recreation administrative assistant
Summary
Council authorized recruitment for an existing, budgeted full-time Administrative Assistant II in Parks & Recreation, citing service needs for facility rentals, programs and front-office coverage after a July 7 vacancy.
Parks & Recreation staff requested a hiring-freeze exception to recruit for a budgeted, full-time Administrative Assistant II that became vacant on July 7 and said the position supports facility rental coordination, customer service, monthly reporting and transit support. "This request does not create a new position or require any additional appropriation," the presenter said, adding the department is already operating with significant staffing impacts.
Council members asked about duties and whether the role might be reduced to part time; staff explained the position handles year-round rental and program coordination (summer camps, registrations) and the department believes the workload is sufficient for a full-time role. The council approved the hiring exception by motion and roll-call vote.
