Item No: 5.E. <br /> MOUN-DiS <br /> Vf 9VMeeting Date: February 10, 2025 <br /> ij� Type of Business: Consent Agenda <br /> Administrator Review: <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> From: Rayla Sue Ewald, Human Resource Director <br /> Item Title/Subject: Resolution 10051, Authorize Recruitment Process for 2025 <br /> Public Works Seasonal Positions <br /> Introduction: <br /> On March 26, 2001, the City Council adopted Resolution 5546, which describes the <br /> procedure for hiring Seasonal Employees. This resolution requires the City Council <br /> approve all seasonal positions. <br /> Discussion: <br /> Annually the City Council has approved the hiring of seasonal Public Works positions. <br /> Resolution 5546 requires the approval take place six (6) weeks prior to the actual hiring <br /> of seasonal staff. <br /> Seasonal Employees benefit the City by providing labor services during periods of higher <br /> labor demand at lower pay rates, keeping overall labor costs down. In return, seasonal <br /> employees benefit from the skills and work ethics they learn on the job. As a result, <br /> employees and citizens benefit from the seasonal employee program. <br /> Staff is recommending hiring seven (7) seasonal employees for up to 119 consecutive <br /> days each in the summer or fall. <br /> • Summer Seasonal Employees - Duties include general Public Works and parks <br /> maintenance. <br /> • Fall Seasonal Employees- Duties by the Parks Division include fall activities such <br /> as mowing, leaf clean up, mower maintenance, assisting with brush removal and <br /> tree trimming, and helping in year-end maintenance activities. <br /> Staff recommends newly hired seasonal positions be compensated at $18.03/hour and <br /> returning seasonal workers compensated at $18.54/hour. Each summer seasonal <br /> employee may work up to 40 hours per week, not to exceed 119 consecutive calendar <br /> days (17 weeks of employment). Employees completing 14-17 weeks of the season <br /> would receive $250 (pro-rated based on weeks completed) on their last paycheck. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Staff is recommending approval of Resolution 10051, Authorize Recruitment Process for <br /> 2025 Seasonal Public Works Positions. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> - �v <br /> Rayla Sue Ewald <br /> Human Resources Director <br /> Attachment(s):1.Res.10051 <br /> The Mounds View Vision <br /> A Thriving Desirable Community <br />
