Subject:Cancel Fleet Service Center Attendant; Add One Equipment Service Writer
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
a second Equipment Service Writer as opposed to hiring a Fleet Service Center Attendant. The Attendant
classification is an entry level classification that limits the level of workload that can be assigned to this position.
The current needs of the Division require an additional employee that can perform all of the Attendant
responsibilities in addition to higher level assignments that would include assisting in the preparation of the
monthly schedule for preventative maintenance, monitoring the computer reports for abnormalities, maintaining
work schedules of vehicle maintenance, contacting departments when necessary to schedule service, and
receiving complaints regarding vehicles and determine need for service. We have determined that in order to
accomplish both the attendant tasks and the service writer tasks, it is most appropriate to hire an Equipment
Service Writer. The addition and use of an Equipment Service Writer will assist the Fleet Division to achieve its
everyday goals while simultaneously allowing the Department to become more cost efficient by avoiding a
duplication of hiring. Therefore, we are requesting to cancel the Fleet Service Center Attendant and add an
Equipment Service Writer.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Public Works Fleet Division will continue to operate without an employee in the appropriate classification.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
