DRAFT k r .`x 4 tervtf e � 1880 Wain Sheet, Centenalfe, 9WN55038 Estabfishetf 18-57 651- 429 -3232 orTFaX651- 429 -8629 March 14, 2013 Daniel Schmitz Dear Mr. Schmitz, This letter is to officially notify you of the job offer we are tendering to you. We propose to have you start on March 25, 2013. As I discussed on the phone, this offer is conditioned on a satisfactory DOT- type physical exam and that your background check comes back without anything of concern. The background review should be complete by March 22, 2013. If you fail to pass your physical or have something negative in the background report, this job offer may be withdrawn. Your starting pay rate would be Step 3, of Pay Grade 6, which is $20.56 per hour. You would work on probation for a period of six months during which your work and compatibility within the department would be evaluated. A minimum condition of your probation is that you obtain your CDL drivers license. Additionally, if you meet expectations of the City at December 31, 2013, you will be moved to Step 4 on January 1, 2014. After that, steps would occur annually on January 1, subject to a satisfactory performance review. Employment is subject to the labor agreement with Local 49 which covers benefits and conditions of employment. A copy is available from the city upon request. Any employment conditions not specifically covered by the Labor Agreement will be guided by the City's Personnel Policy. Also, I should point out that you would not be eligible for our health insurance until the first of the month following 30 days of employment, thus May 1, 2013. Of course, you should not cancel any insurance that you currently carry until you have confirmation of coverage from our provider. Appropriate paperwork and applications for insurance can be completed when you start work. Please contact me if you should have any questions. Yours truly, Paul Palzer, Public Works Director
