Tliis action is based upon a study of a newly created class of positions in the Division of Parks and Recreaflon. This study included an
evaluation using the Caty's QES job evaluation sys[em and determined that the Parks Worker II classification be created.

Tate: $17.891hour) classes to perform most of the manual labor and custodian workat its parks, parkways, golf courses, recreation
centers, and other structures. The study conducted by the Office of Hnman Resources deteinvned that the Department of Pazks and
Recreation could work more efficienfly witit the creation of a class vehich }iad respons�bilities and rate of pay that lie between these two
classes.
*Note: The Division of Pazks and Recreariott aLso employs individuals in the staned Groundsworker class (Starting pay: $16.86/how).
Based on the study and the duties of the new class, it was recommended that a new classification be cieated instead of resurrecting

BACKGROUND
The Parks department currently uses Pazk Aides, Parks Workers and the positions in the starred
Groundscvorker class to perForm some of the manual labor and custodian work at its parks,
pazkways, golf courses, recreation centers, and other structures. About 10 years ago, the
Groundsworker class was starred when the Pazks Worker class was created. The main difference
between the two classes is that the Pazks Worker class requires a CDL and the Groundsworker
does not. The Division of Pazks and Recreation has requested a study to determine the
appropriate classification levels of positions so that the department can work even more
efficiently. Pazks and Recreation believes there is a need for a new class which would be
compensated at a lower rate than the Parks Worker and the starred Crroundsworker classes but
lrigher than the Park Aide. Parks and Recrearion has provided the Office of Human Resources
with a recommended job description and job profile for the proposed positions.

BACKGROUND
The Parks department currently uses Pazk Aides, Parks Workers and the positions in the starred
Groundscvorker class to perForm some of the manual labor and custodian work at its parks,
pazkways, golf courses, recreation centers, and other structures. About 10 years ago, the
Groundsworker class was starred when the Pazks Worker class was created. The main difference
between the two classes is that the Pazks Worker class requires a CDL and the Groundsworker
does not. The Division of Pazks and Recreation has requested a study to determine the
appropriate classification levels of positions so that the department can work even more
efficiently. Pazks and Recreation believes there is a need for a new class which would be
compensated at a lower rate than the Parks Worker and the starred Crroundsworker classes but
lrigher than the Park Aide. Parks and Recrearion has provided the Office of Human Resources
with a recommended job description and job profile for the proposed positions.
