A formal staff recommendation to the Council will be <br />forthcoming at the October 17, 2005 meeting. <br /> <br />3.

I am <br />spending a great deal of time looking at future workloads and as is the case with all <br />divisions, work functions that may be more appropriate for the engineering technician <br />position, if budgeted recommendations are approved.
