City Council voted silently tonight (4/17/12) to create a new Parks position titled "Parks Planning and Cultural Arts Program Manager" to help carry the load. The Administration is reclassifying a non union Senior Parks Planner to the new position. It will pay $108,972 at the top tier. HR Director Kerry Seivers wrote: "The duties of the Senior Parks Planner position will be absorbed by the new manager position as well as other Parks positions. There will not be any additional positions created."
Last time I checked, Carolyn Hope (Linked-In) was a Senior Parks Planner managing these massive parks projects. She works very hard and is very bright. Ms. Hope is worth every penny we pay her and perhaps she will be promoted to this new position.
Council is also glancing at the non union city employees salaries already approved. Twenty-five positions and salaries are listed below. Non union city workers are awarded performance incentives and their benefits package average about 30% of their salary. I'm quoting top tier since the total increment is only $1-3K and doesn't count incentives.
City Clerk: $105,024
Administrative Assist: $53,616
Communications and Marketing Administrator: $104,364 Read More >>
