M0L--JN-MitSVVt-EW- Meeting Date: February A e2022 nda Type of Business: Consent Agenda Administrator Review: City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Rayla Sue Ewald, Human Resources Director Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9538, Approving 2022 Public Works Seasonal Positions Introduction: On March 26, 2001, the City Council adopted Resolution 5546, which describes the procedure for hiring Seasonal Employees. This resolution requires the City Council approve all seasonal positions. Discussion: Annually the City Council has approved the hiring of seasonal Public Works positions. Resolution 5546 requires the approval take place six (6) weeks prior to the actual hiring of seasonal staff. Seasonal Employees benefit the City by providing labor services during periods of higher labor demand at much lower pay rates keeping overall labor costs down. In return, seasonal employees benefit from the skills and work ethics they learn on the job. As a result, employees and citizens benefit from the seasonal employee program. Staff is recommending hiring seven (7) seasonal employees for up to 119 consecutive days each in the summer (no fall employees). • Summer Seasonal Employees — Duties include general Public Works and parks maintenance. Staff recommends newly hired seasonal positions be compensated at $15.00/hour and returning seasonal workers compensated at $15.50/hour. Each summer seasonal employee may work up to 40 hours per week, not to exceed 119 consecutive calendar days (17 weeks of employment). Recommendation: Staff is recommending approval of Resolution 9538 Approving the Seasonal Public Works Positions for 2022.
