Budget Request 2019-2020
Detailed Decision Package
Public Works - Engineering
Engineer III FTE
New Engineer III to
support Capital Project work load and reduce reliance on management staff to
complete projects.
Background
Currently there is
one Capital Project Manager and one Development Project Manager. In the past there was an Engineer III to
support the Capital Project work load. Due to retirements and the need to
complete Stormwater NPDES Permit compliance work, the Division currently does
not have an Engineer III position to support capital projects.
Current situation
Engineering does not
currently have adequate staffing to keep up with either the Development or
Capital Project work load. Projects are
currently being managed by the Department Director and Managers to meet work
load demands, taking away time for Director and Managers to run
Department.
Proposed solution
Hire a new FTE to
support the Capital Project work load freeing up the Director and
Managers.
