J/ <br />Elk River -^: <br />Municipal Utilities <br />13069 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 430 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0430 <br />September 29, 2008 <br />To: Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br />Jerry Takle <br />John Dietz <br />Jerry Gumphrey <br />From: Bryan Adams <br />Subject: Electric Department Job Restructuring <br />Phone: 763.441.2020 <br />Fax: 763.441.8099 <br />At the last Elk River Municipal Utilities commission meeting, the attached sheet was discussed <br />reflecting the proposed workload redistribution within the electric department. This restructuring <br />was brought to this commission first before talking to the affected employees to head off any <br />perception of retaliation due to the ongoing internal investigations. The reason for this <br />restructuring is to balance the workload to accommodate due to the lack of new development as <br />we are doing substantially more maintenance and less expansion. <br />Your staff has discussed this proposed shifting of duties with the affected parties particularly <br />with Mike Thiry who is proposed to assume his former duties as a lead lineman. Mike Thiry <br />understands the need for this change and felt it unnecessary to appear before this commission. <br />We have started the necessary cross training to allow Mike to transfer his current duties to other <br />employees. <br />
