<br /> To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8773, Authorizing Advertisement for Hiring a Maintenance <br />Worker in the Public Works Department <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Staff received a notice of retirement from Public Works Maintenance Worker Jeff Wienke <br />today. Mr. Wienke has served the City for 28 years. Mr. Wienke’s last day is June 30, <br />2017. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />Staff is requesting to start the process of advertising and hiring for the position. The current <br />Public Works Collective Bargaining Agreement requires that all permanent job vacancies <br />are posted internally for five (5) working days so current members of the bargaining unit can <br />be considered for the vacancy before it gets advertised to the general public. Only after the <br />vacancy is posted for five (5) working days and no responses or qualified candidates are <br />received will the vacancy be posted. <br /> <br />The job description for this position has been reviewed by the Public Works Supervisor and <br />Public Works Director, and no updates or revisions are required. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution, which will approve <br />the hiring of a maintenance worker position. The starting wage for the new maintenance <br />worker will start at the lowest step in accordance with the labor agreement. A <br />recommendation for hire is anticipated sometime in late July or early August. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Item No : 9F Meeting Date : June 12, 2017 Type of Business Council Business : <br />Administrator Review ____ : <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />
