CASE # 4 DUTY CHANGES BY: Ryan Schroeder, City Administrator Background: In addition to format changes in the Organization Chart itself, I have taken this opportunity to suggest changes within departments themselves as follows: The City Engineer has always worked closely with the Project Manager and Zoning Administrator. With the loss of the Engineering Technician position, coordination between these positions will become increasingly important~ Therefore, I have suggested these two technical positions report directly to the City Engineer rather than the City Administrator. This will result in a limit of direct reports to the City Administrator to only Senior Management (although certainly working relationships will continue to be active). I have also suggested changing the Project Manager rifle to Economic Development Coordinator to more accurately depict the position budget and duty relationship. Duties for the position are not expected to change beyond those discussed during the budget process. Currently the Building Maintenance Worker is housed in Administrative Services but receives work direction from time to time from the Parks/Utilities Coordinator who offices at Park Center. Last fall the Public Works Supervisor moved his office to City Hall. This has improved the coordination of his activities with both the City Engineer and City Administrator. With this move it would be easier for the Building Maintenance Worker to receive work direction from the Public Works Supervisor rather than the Parks/Utilities Coordinator. Again as a result of the change in Engineering there is necessitated a change in inspections (as previously discussed). The Public Works Supervisor will be in charge of pavement inspections with the Parks/Utilities Coordinator in charge of utility inspections. The effective change of items 2 and 3 above is that the Public Works Supervisor will be placed in charge of any repair, remodeling or construction of public buildings and pavement inspections. The position will continue to function in a collaborative role between responsibilities in street maintenance and those within the parks and utilities systems. Building maintenance responsibilities will be removed from the Parks/Utilities Coordinator but utility construction inspections will be added. Administrative Services will continue to be charged with City Hall maintenance activities. Committee Action: Motion to recommend/not recommend to City Council that the Duty Changes be approved.
