fCOUNNTIL COMMUNICATION
TO: City Council
FROM: City Manager
MEETING DATE: May 4, 1.988
AGENDA TITLE: Approve Reclassification of Heavy -Equipment Mechanic to
Welder-Me-chanic
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve the reclassification of
one Heavy Equipment Mechanic to Welder -Mechanic.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The attached organization chart for the Building
and Equipment Maintenance Division of the Public Works Department shows that
under the Equipment Maintenance Supervisor there are presently three Heavy
Equipment Mechanic positions, one Welder -Mechanic position, and one Equipment
Service Worker position authorized.
The requirement for the Welder -Mechanic i s journeyman experience in both
equipment maintenance and welding. The requirement for the Heavy Equipment
Mechanic is journeyman experience in equipment ma i nter.ance . The City filled
a vacant Heavy Equipment Mechanic position by hiring off of an existing
eligibility list for Welder -Mechanic in order to fill the position with
minimal time lost in recruitment. This was not a problem since the
applicants on the Welder -Mechanic list must be journeymen mechanics and the
salary for Heavy Equipment Mechanic and Welder -Mechanic is the same.
The Equipment Maintenance Shop presently is working their Heavy Equipment
Mechanics and the Wclder-Mechanic on a 4/10 plan (4 days per week/I0 hours
per day). In order to provide additional flexibility in the Shop, it is
requested that the Heavy Equipment Mechanic hired off of the Welder -Mechanic
list be reclassified to Welder -Mechanic. The employee involved has no
problem with this reclassification. It is recommended that the City Council
reallocate the positions in the Equipment Maintenance Division as follows:
Equipment Maintenance Supervisor
Wel der -Mechanic
Equipment Service Worker
Heavy Equipment Mechanic
