Title
Increase a Part Time Aquatic Leader to Full Time in Recreation & Parks Department (B)
Explanation
The Recreation and Parks Department believes that increasing the Aquatic Leader, CWA pay grade 11 ($22,204 - $29,134) from part time will better utilize the time of other, higher classified employees, like the Aquatic Supervisor, who also performs some of the Aquatic Leaders functions. This optimizing of time will better meet the needs of the community and customers of the City's pools. The department has changed the Maintenance Mechanic II, CWA pay grade 14 ($25,750 - $33,787) to Maintenance Mechanic I, CWA pay grade 11 ($22,204 - $29,134) to bring the job more in line with internal equity. The savings generated will help off set the additional expense of making the Aquatic Leader full time.
Fiscal Note
The estimated additional cost will be $2,845, annualized with benefits.
Recommendation
Personnel & Organizational Structure Committee recommends that the City Commission approve changing the part time Aquatic Leader position to a full time position.
