Memo from Ron Moorse dated August 25, 2008 �i EN i�ILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: August 21, 2008 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Ron Moorse, City Administrator � SUBJECT: Public Works Superintendent Promotion BACKGROUND/DIS CUS SION With ihe retirement of Jirn Perron from the position of Public Works Superintendent, after 19 years of service, the City has a vacancy in the Superint�ndent position. As part of a succ�ssion pla.nning process; in 2006, the Ci�y requested the P�blic Warks employees to indicate whether they were interested in participating in a training and development process that had the potential to lead to a promotion to the Superintendent position. Two employees indicated an interest in participating in the process. These were Joe Mooney and Aaron At�drews. During ihe past two years, both have taken on additional responsibilities, including leading ihe Public Warks crew in the absence of the Public Works Superintendent. With the retirement of the Public Works Superi.ntezadent in July, the next step in the succession process was to inierview the two employees for the Superintendent pasition. On August 5, ar� interview process was completed. The interview panel included Greg Hoag, Public Works D'rrector, Michelle Olson, Parks and Recreation Manager; Ron Moorse, City Administrator; and Duane Schvvartz, the Roseville Public Works Director. The interview panel selected Joe Mooney as tl�e top candidate. RECOMMENDATION Yt is recommended that roe Mooney be promoted to the Superintendent position effective August 26, 2008, with a salary of $57,474, which is step four of Level $ of the City's salary schedule. The promotian of Joe Mooney to the Superintendent position will leave a vacancy in a Public Warks Maintenance Worker position. In planning �or this transition, it is recommEnded that, during the majority o�the new Superintendent's six month probationary pez�ad, the City extend the �rork tirne of two seasonal employees to provide continued staffing io cover the Pubiic Works �aintenance position vacancy, rather than moving forward immecliately with a full-#ime 11Metro-ine;lardenhi11s1AdminlCily AdministratorlGenera] documentslRCA'sIRCA PW supt 8-21-08.doc 8/21I2008 Page 2 maintenance position hiring process.
