Elk River <br />Municipal Utilities <br />13069 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 430 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0430 <br />Apri17, 2009 <br />To: Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br />John Dietz <br />Jerry Gumphrey <br />Daryl Thompson <br />From: Troy Adams <br />Subj: Review and Consider Staff Restructuring Clarification <br />Phone: 763.441.2020 <br />Fax: 763.441.8099 <br />Effective Apri12009, the Utilities has transitioned to a new staff organizational structure (see <br />attached staff organizational chart). Included in this restructuring were the promotion of Lloyd <br />Lorenzen from Lead Lineperson to Line Foreperson and the promotion of Mike Thiry from Lead <br />Lineperson to Inventory Foreperson. This restructuring also included the creation of two new <br />positions, the Director of Operations and the Superintendent of Electrical Services. These two <br />new positions were to be evaluated for 60 days and then reviewed with the assistance of Riley, <br />Dettmann & Kelsey for comparable worth compliance and retroactive salaries. For the two <br />employees being promoted to the Foreperson pay class, this 60 day evaluation was not specified. <br />Staff requests Commission clarification on the starting date of the pay increase for the two <br />employees promoted to the Foreperson pay class. The pay increase for these two employees <br />would be a $1.00 an hour increase. Because the pay class is already established, staff <br />recommends approving the $1.00 pay increase without the 60 day evaluation retroactive to April <br />1, 2009. <br />
