This position <br /> will fill the vacancy created due to internal shifting when Utility Worker Bohmert moved into the Parks <br /> Division. <br /> Discussion: <br /> Staff interviewed several candidates for the position before meeting Mario Terrazas. Mr. Terrazas meets <br /> the requirements for the position and brings four years' experience to the position. The interview panel <br /> found him to be a good fit for the department. <br /> Mr. Terrazas would be a member of the Public Works Collective Bargaining Unit. Due to Mr. Terrazas' <br /> previous experience within Public Works, staff requests to treat him as a lateral transfer and begin his wage <br /> at Step 3 of the Labor Contract. Mr. Terrazas would advance to the Step 4 on his one-year anniversary, <br /> with the following step increase occurring on his anniversary dates until he reaches Step 9. Staff and the <br /> HR Committee support Mr. Terrazas joining the Public Works team. Mr. Terrazas would be subject to an <br /> 18-month probationary period. <br /> 2024 - Grade 5 <br /> Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Step 8 Ste 9 <br /> $29.03 $30.19 $31.33 $32.50 $33.72 $34.90 $36.03 $37.11 $38.13 <br /> Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: <br /> Create a culture where employees desire to work. <br /> Financial Impact: <br /> This is a budgeted position. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution 9968, Approving the hire of Mario Terrazas to the <br /> Public Works Maintenance Worker-Utilities Position. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Ds� <br /> Rayla Sue Ewald <br /> Human Resource Director <br /> Attachment: Resolution 9968 <br /> The Mounds View Vision <br /> A Thriving Desirable Community <br />
