SUBJECT: Consider Resolution No. 2001- Establishing a Revised
Classification Plan and Job Descriptions for Non -
Competitive and Competitive Service Employees and
Rescinding Resolution No. 2000 -1775 and Consider
Resolution No. 2001 - Amending the Salary Plan for
Competitive Service, Non - Competitive Service and Hourly

BACKGROUND
At the City Council's meeting on September 6, 2000, the Council
approved Resolutions Nos. 2000 -1775 and 2000 -1776 updating the
City's Classification and Salary Plans. At the City Council's
November 1, 2000 meeting, the City Council approved the addition of
a regular, full -time Laborer /Crossing Guard position in the Public
Works Department. This new position with combined duties requires
an amendment to the City's Classification Plan to incorporate a job
description. After further analysis of the intended duties and
salary range, staff is proposing a renaming of the position to
Maintenance Worker I with incorporation of various amendments to
the Maintenance Worker job description series and the Salary Plan
as discussed below.
DISCUSSION
Attachment 1 is a draft resolution that is proposed to establish a
revised Classification Plan and Job Descriptions. Only the
Maintenance Worker job description has been revised to incorporate
Maintenance Worker I, II, and III class descriptions. Legislative
format has been used to identify the revised language. If the
proposed changes to the Maintenance Worker job description are
approved, the one current City employee that has a Maintenance
Worker I position title will be reclassified as a Maintenance
Worker II; the three employees that currently have a Maintenance
Worker II position title will be reclassified as Maintenance Worker
III; and the new Public Works Laborer II position approved at the
C '02.x.11
Honorable City Council
January 26, 2001
Page 2
November 1, 2000 meeting will be reclassified as a Maintenance
Worker I (Salary Range 18).
The final resolution will include the entire Classification Plan,
including all job descriptions for Non - Competitive and Competitive
Service Employees. Only the revised Maintenance Worker job
description is included with the attached draft resolution
(Attachment 1).
A revised Salary Plan resolution has also been prepared (Attachment
2) to incorporate the revisions to the Maintenance Worker series.
Legislative format has been used to show the new
language /revisions.
The Salary Tables are not included with the draft Salary Plan
Resolution, since no amendment to those tables is currently
proposed. The final Salary Plan resolution will include the Salary
Tables, "since Resolution No. 2000 -1776 will be rescinded.
