Surface Water (1) Full time employee 1. Due to the laws that have been put into effect, staff has been taken from other departments to assist in this area leaving other programs fall behind until the seasonal would start for the summer months. Since this program has started the cities sanitary sewer-cleaning program has fallen behind. The sanitary sewer dept. has been assisting to meet the cities requirements until seasonal staff is hired on. Other departments assist in accomplishing these tasks, which means no progress in other department. Surface water dept. is assigned (1) seasonal employee to help complete these requirements. 2. Storm basin cleaning is one of the requirements that are accomplished by (2) seasonal employees. This is a time consuming task that requires minimal supervision, which lets staff work on other requirements of greater importance in this area. 3. Ditch cleaning, a common area for debris and sticks to collect and create obstructions. This is another example of a task that can be performed by seasonal employees with minimal supervision at a pay rate far less than a fulltime employee who is out in the field performing another task. 4. Catch basin repairs, (2) personnel are a must for this project. One is actually in the structure doing the mortar repairs while the other is on the ground mixing and supplying the needed supplies. This is (1) fulltime employee and (1) seasonal. • This report clearly points out that there is a substantial need and savings to the City of Mounds View by not reducing the number of seasonal employee’s. The examples as stated above have been accomplished due to the number of seasonal employee’s supplementing the full time staff. Respectfully Submitted, Tim Pittman, P.W. Supervisor Steve Dazenski, Parks Supervisor
