As a result, these instructors usually <br />only work one to one and a half hours per class with limited weekly hours. This makes the <br />recruitment for these positions challenging because it is imperative that we have highly <br />dependable staff with specific expertise related to each type of class. Experience has shown that <br />the $12.00 per hour rate enables us to accomplish this. In the past, it has been difficult to recruit <br />and acquire quality staff for this position with a lower pay rate. <br /> <br />In speaking with the various cities regarding the economy, it was discovered that two cities, Elk <br />River and Roseville, have instituted seasonal pay freezes for 2009. This means that all returning <br />employees will not have the opportunity for a raise and will be brought back at their 2008 rates. <br />If the City Council is looking for possible budget reductions, this may be one area to consider. <br /> <br />Bud2:et <br />Below is the budget breakdown of all temporary staff/seasonal staff for 2009: <br /> <br />RECREATION: $33ttOOO <br />Approximate Breakdown: <br />Program Instructor I: (approx. 3 instructors) <br />560 hours (50 classes) x $12.50 = $7,000 <br />Program Instructor II: (approx. 3 instructors) <br />230 hours x $13.00 = $2,990 <br />Program Instructor III: (approx. 6 instructors) <br />95.5 hours x $15.00 = $1,432.50 <br />Youth Umpires/Referees: (approx. 7 refs/umps) <br />180 games x $14.50 = $2,610 <br />Playground Leaders: (approx. 12 leaders) <br />2,104 hours x $9.00 = $18,936 <br /> <br />PARKS: $37tt500 <br />Approximate Breakdown: <br />Seasonal Maintenance: (4 staff) <br />2,080 hours (13 weeks) x $10.75 = $22,360 <br />Park Attendants: (2 staff) <br />280 hours x $8.50 = $2,380 <br />Rink Attendants: (5 rinks/approx. 15 staff) <br />1,535 hours x $8.25 = $12,663.75 <br /> <br />2 <br />
