Council reviews proposed job reclassifications and addition of seasonal grounds workers
Summary
City staff recommended several position title changes — including retitling the city clerk to 'city clerk / administrative officer' — and proposed adding three seasonal facilities/grounds workers to support expanded mowing and park maintenance while reallocating existing staff resources.
City staff presented recommended position title changes and an expansion of seasonal staffing to support parks and maintenance work. Recommendations included changing the city clerk's title to "city clerk / administrative officer," modifying the Emergency Services Director title to include stormwater coordination, moving a planning director/office manager role to include stormwater responsibilities, and adding three part-time seasonal facilities/grounds workers for peak grass-cutting demand.
Staff said the seasonal hires are intended to free regular public-works crews to focus on other projects (for example, meter installation). The recommendation also included making the evidence technician position part-time and adjusting sworn staffing levels (a proposal referenced to reduce police officer headcount from eight to six for budget alignment). Council members asked clarifying questions about current stormwater responsibilities and coordination between field crews and city hall.
