Staff proposes adding a full‑time utilities operations position for 2025; board feedback requested
Summary
District staff proposed adding a full‑time utilities operations position to support growth and succession planning and recommended building a director of engineering role; the committee was asked for feedback, not action.
Staff presented recommended 2025 staffing assumptions, saying senior management factored operational capacity, projected growth and succession planning into proposed hires.
"Specifically for this committee, the plan includes an addition of a full time utilities operations position," Director Buells said, noting the role would likely be filled in fall 2025 after the new limited treatment plant has operated for several months. Staff also described plans to recruit a director of engineering later this year or early 2025. Committee members were asked to provide feedback so staff can model the budget and rate impacts; no formal action was requested at the committee level.
