Item No. 8D <br />Meeting Date: September 10, 2007 <br />Type of Business: CA <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business <br />City Administrator Review _______ <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Greg Lee, Director of Public Works <br /> <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7152 Authorizing the Advertisement for <br />the Public Works Supervisor Position <br /> <br />Background: <br />The Public Works Supervisor position has been vacant since December 15, <br />2006. As a cost saving measure, and as an opportunity to allow for professional <br />growth within the Public Works Department, this position was not immediately <br />filled. <br /> <br /> Discussion <br />At this time, the Public Works Department has obtained its objective of providing <br />an opportunity and allowing for professional growth within the department. All <br />employees were afforded an opportunity to take on additional tasks and <br />responsibilities if they so elected to do so. <br /> <br />Many of the responsibilities of the Public Works Supervisor were delegated to <br />administrative positions in within Public Works. However, the work load of all <br />Public Works employees have been impacted. <br /> <br />We have now reached a point whereby the level of service that historically the <br />Public Works Department has been providing to the citizens of Mounds View, the <br />City Council, the City business owners, Staff members, and other city customers <br />has diminished. <br /> <br />In recent years the City of Mounds View has developed goals that will directly <br />influence the Public Works Department administrative capabilities. The top two <br />goals are: <br /> <br /> To improve the City’s street and utilities infrastructure <br /> Implement the for County Highway 10 redevelopment / <br />revitalization plan <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
