5 - YEAR PROJECTION FOR PERSONNEL NEEDS <br />1996 <br />PARKS MAINTENANCE WORKER: PARKS MAINTENANCE PROGRAM - 1996 <br />An additional Parks Maintenance Worker is requested for parks <br />maintenance services. Increased use of parks and increasingly <br />high expectations for park maintenance requires additional hours <br />of labor. This position would be funded through the general <br />fund. At level I the position and benefits would be <br />approximately $38,000. <br />ADDITIONAL HOURS TO THE JOINT POWERS FORESTRY CONTRACT FOR <br />FORESTRY ACTIVITY AT THE BRIDGES GOLF COURSE: GOLF COURSE <br />PROGRAM - 1996 <br />Additional tree planting is necessary for the golf course. <br />Buffer tree planting along Highway 118 to avert stray golf balls <br />and tree planting for aesthetics along Fairways # 1 & 2 screening <br />the trucking firms is in the plans of the golf course. With <br />additional hours added on to the Joint Powers Forestry Contract, <br />tree planting could be done in-house. In addition, landscaping <br />plans and planting, tree trimming and disease control could be <br />extended forestry services provided at the golf course. It is <br />expected that the revenues of the golf course would fund this <br />extra time. Add 100 days of labor at approximately $7.00 per <br />:hour or $5,600 plus benefits totaling approximately $6,000. <br />ADDITIONAL FORESTRY WORKER TIME TO THE JOINT POWERS CONTRACT: <br />REFORESTATION & DISEASE CONTROL - 1997 <br />There are many projects that would benefit from additional <br />7orestry work including landscaping along the noise barrier at <br />Long Lake Road and Hwy 118, the Highway 10 Corridor landscaping <br />project, City street and boulevard trimming (which is way behind <br />in trimming due to lack of time and lack of money for contracting <br />the work). Grants are readily available, but lack of time <br />r stricts projects. Contracted tree services for trim work <br />should be budgeted at approximately $2,000 each year or the <br />additional of a seasonal forestry employee at approximately $7.00 <br />per hour for 100 days or $5,600 plus benefits totaling <br />approximately $6,000. Either option would be funded with general <br />funds. <br />S <br />
