Voting: Aye: Pirsch, O'Konski, Whitmore, Mr. Chairman MOTION carried 4-0 Request For Approval Amendment To Class Specification -Associate Attorney Tracy Svevad, Personnel Department, stated that when the Personnel Department was reviewing all class specifications relative to ADA compliance, the Associate Attorney class specification was missed. • • Personnel Board 2 Minutes -June 25, 1998 The class specification has been amended to reflect ADA compliance and now includes the provisions for the ability to sit, stand, or walk a percentage of time and the ability to use a number of pounds of force to move objects for varying periods of time. MOTION by Whitmore, second by Pirsch, to approve the amendments to the class specification of Associate Attorney. Voting: Aye: Pirsch, O'Konski, Whitmore, Mr. Chairman MOTION carried 4-0 Request For Approval Elimination Of Classifications Systems Analyst Data Processing Supervisor Management Information Systems Director Communications Shift Supervisor Deputy Chief of Communications Chief of Communications Public Works Inspector II Building and Grounds manager Property Inventory Supervisor Property Inventory Specialist Golf Caretaker I Golf Caretaker II Police Information Operator III Operator Communications Dispatcher Communications Specialist Detention Technician II Keypunch Operator Rehabilitation Inspector Automotive Body Repairer Ms. Svevad stated, first, that she would like to delete the Automotive Body Repairer classification from this discussion because it is possible that the classification may still be used. The other classifications are obsolete and have not been used in several years. She stated she had spoken to the union representatives from both unions affected, and they have no objection to the elimination of these classifications. MOTION by O'Konski, second by Pirsch, to approve the request to eliminate the above job classifications with the exception of Automotive Body Repairer. Voting: Aye: Pirsch, O'Konski,Whitmore, Mr. Chairman MOTION carried 4-0 • Personnel Board 3 Minutes -June 25, 1998 Request For Approval Creation Of Class Specifications Golf Professional Senior Golf Professional Ms. Svevad told the Board that these two positions were being proposed because the business of operating a golf course clubhouse has changed over the years to the point that they are now more appropriately determined to be management-type classifications. The employees currently in these positions supervise other employees and are responsible for hiring and firing, which puts them in the management category. The Golf Professional is responsible for running a 9-hole golf course and the Senior Golf Professional runs the 18-hole golf courses. The top pay step for Golf Professional is only $168 a year more in this classification, while the top pay step for Senior Golf Professional is $3,746 more per year. R. J. Brown, 4909 Davenport, voiced his concern that the salaries for these positions were not justified in relation to their job descriptions and the fringe benefits they receive in regard to the free housing. Mr. O'Konski advised Mr. Brown that he obtained a copy of like compensation packages for golf professionals through a company called Evergreen Golf Management in Dallas, Texas. In comparing the salary levels of the proposed Golf Professional, that salary is right in the ballpark of the other compensation packages listed. Mr. O'Konski further stated that for the Senior Golf Professional, the salary is grossly inadequate compared to what a Class A golf professional is paid at a like type golf course. He said the compensation for this is about $25,000 less than what the average is for someone who has less than five years of experience. Mr. O'Konski gave the example of the city-owned golf course in Lee's Summit, Missouri, where the golf professional is paid between $55,000 and $60,000. Ms. Svevad noted that the Golf Division is set up as an independent enterprise fund, so no tax dollars go toward this operation; it's all funded by revenues produced by the individual golf courses. MOTION by Whitmore, second by O'Konski, to approve the request to create the job classifications of Golf Professional and Senior Golf Professional. Voting: Aye: Pirsch, O'Konski, Whitmore, Mr. Chairman MOTION carried 4-0 At this time, Ms. Whitmore requested that an item that was on the agenda last month, the request to hire above the minimum (Crime Prevention Coordinator and Crime Prevention Specialist), be placed on the July 1998 agenda. Mr. Chairperson asked the recording secretary to add that request to the July agenda. OLD BUSINESS Appeal of FLOYD, Micheal, Fire Fighter Appeal of HENSON.

Dennis Henson and Susan Savard-Henson will be represented by Steven Lefler, who is in a criminal trial today and requested that their appeals be laid over to next month. Mr. in den Bosch stated the City would join in that motion. Mr. Chairperson stated he had been made aware that the three appellants were requesting to lay over the appeals, and he had no objection to the requests. Therefore, the three appeals would be continued to next month. MOTION by Whitmore, second by Pirsch,to adjourn.
