Reserves have been paid $8 per hour for at least the past ten years. The Committee is recommending that the rate of pay for Police Reserves be increased from $8 per hour to $10 per hour effective January 1, 1998. Street/Park Employees - At the August budget work session, the Council adopted a motion creating a Park Forman position. Attached is a copy of the job description for this position for Council approval. The Committee is recommending that this position be ranked at 68 points, pay grade 10. Phil Hals is recommending that Terry Bye be promoted to this position effective January 1, 1998, starting at Step K. The Committee also suggested that this position be reviewed after one year and the point ranking be adjusted if necessary. + Several years ago a Laborer position was created in the street department with the intent that these employees not be required to snow plow and operate other light or heavy equipment. Increased street mileage and new and ongoing park projects have required the two Laborers to function more as Maintenance I employees rather than Laborers. It seems appropriate, since there are not enough Maintenance I and II employees to do Maintenance I and II duties, that the Laborers be reclassified as Maintenance I employees. The Personnel Committee is recommending that the two Laborers, Joe Pipenhagen and Chris Holzem, be reclassified as Maintenance I employees and move to Pay Grade 7, Step E effective September 1, 1997. This represents a per hour increase of $1.56 for Joe and $2.11 for Chris. The Committee recommends that the Laborer position be retained for use in the future. Also reviewed was the part time position held by Jerry Mackedanz who has been working for the street department since March, 1994. Although Jerry performs Maintenance II duties, he has never been formally classified as a Maintenance II employee and, as a result, has not had a pay increase. The Personnel Committee is recommending that Jerry Mackedanz be classified as a part time Maintenance II employee with a pay increase effective January 1, 1998, to Step D of Pay Grade 8, an increase of approximately $1.25 per hour. Ice Arena Positions - In June the Council took action on the Ice Arena Manger position. At that time I indicated that the Committee would request Council action on the other arena positions in the near future. The positions to be reviewed include the Ice Arena Maintenance Supervisor, Ice Arena Worker One, Ice Arena Worker Two, Ice Arena Worker Three, and cashier. A job description for each of these positions is attached. All of the positions are part time with the exception of the Ice Arena Maintenance Supervisor. Case Hayward currently fills this position as a part time employee; however, he has been working 40 hours per week during the ice season and almost 40
