Summary

The committee recommended adoption of a job description for a new transfer station safety program development and compliance coordinator (item 11839), which staff said was required by the compensation ordinance and needed to meet OSHA obligations.

Committee members voted to recommend item 11839, authorizing a job description for a new transfer station safety program development and compliance coordinator in the health department. Staff said the position was created in the recently revised compensation ordinance and that the job description is the last step to allow hiring for the role.

A staff presenter noted the job description is needed "to make sure we're compliant with all OSHA regulations." Councilors said this readied the position for recruitment and that they had already addressed related finance and council committee steps; the motion to recommend adoption passed by voice vote.
