REQUEST FOR ACTION <br />TO ITEM NUMBER <br />Ma or and Ci Council 4.5 <br />AGENDA SECTION MEETING DATE PREPARED BY <br />Consent Apri12, 2012 Lauren Wipper, HR Representative <br /> and Tim Simon, Finance Director <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION REVIEWED By <br />Resolution to Reallocate Funds and Hire a Seasonal Wastewater Ga Leirmoe, WWTP Chief O erator <br />Laborer REVIEWED BY <br /> Cal Portner, Ci Administrator <br />ACTION REQUESTED <br />Adopt attached resolution to reallocate funds and authorize staff to fill a seasonal wastewater laborer <br />position. <br />BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION <br />During the 2012 budget review sessions, Chief Wastewater Operator Gary Leirmoe reviewed a seasonal <br />laborer position to work on the jetting crew. Like all positions listed but not approved, this was to be <br />reviewed and recommended from the City Administrator to the Council. City Administrator Cal Portner <br />recommends filling this seasonal position. <br />The seasonal laborer will work directly with full-time wastewater staff to clean the city's sanitary sewer <br />lines. This position will work for 11 weeks beginning in early June through mid-August. <br />The Wastewater Division has had this position in the past but felt that they could manage without it <br />when the full-time labor position was created and filled in 2007. Due to changing the full-time laborer <br />position to a maintenance operator position in 2008 and continued increased workload, it is necessary to <br />again fill this seasonal position. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />The estimated cost for the seasonal laborer position is $4,800 and will be funded out of the Wastewater <br />Treatment Budget. A budget amendment from the Equipment Repair and Maintenance service line item <br />can be reallocated to Personal Service -part-time pay for this seasonal position. There is no additional <br />impact from filling this position. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />^ Resolution Amending Wastewater Treatment Budget <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />P9NE~E6 BT <br />N:\Public Bodies\City Council\Coundl RCA\Agenda Packet\0402-2012\Wastewatertreatmentseasonalposidon (1).docx ~~- <br />
