We have completed our study of the Iandscape Arctutect III position held by Don Ganje.
We have reviewed the job profile, inYecviewed ihe incumbent and immediate supervisor,
compared the position with related classes and positions, and evaluated the posirion using
the QES system. Based upon that informatiozi, we recommend that the position should be
allocated to the newly created Landscape Architect IV class. Please share tius information
with Yi e emp.oyee affected, or if you would lilce me to s�focTy the employee, please let me
know. The addirional salary cost ofthis upgrade will 6e approadmaYely $7,614 per year.
To implement this action, your department will need to initiate a requisition and send it
through the requ'ued process. The final appointment of Mr. Ganje to this new Yitle cannot
take place until the position is o�cially adopted by the Ciry Council, so I wsll keep you
apprized of that process.
If yoc choose not to implemeni this, you can un3ertake other meas�res to keep the studied
posi:ion at its cuarznt leve;. The �rocass can be simple or �nvclve3 dsper_ding upon the
needs of a parriculaz siudy. It may invoive any one or a combination of the following:
restructuring the duties ofthe studled position Yo reassign higher-level duties to other
positions(s), modifying e�risYing processes and procedures, or studying an eirtire unit - its
structure, functions, and operations -£or the possibility of a reorganiz.ation.
Please call me at 266-6510 ofyour decision or to discuss this matter:
