<br />'10-1 <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the City Manager <br /> <br />May 22, 2000 <br /> <br />Subject <br />Hiring of Permits Technician <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Authorize (by motion) Engineering & Construction to hire Lori Essex for the position of <br />Permits Technician starting at the second step of the salary range which is <br />$3,497.00/monthly <br /> <br />Background <br />The position of Permits Technician in Engineering and Construction will serve the public <br />counter as part of our "one stop," counter group. <br /> <br />Lori Essex comes to the City from the private sector, having spent over 19 years <br />working for consulting civil engineering firms in the local area. She worked as a <br />surveying technician and drafter for such firms as Brian-Kangas-Foulk in Redwood City, <br />and Wilsey & Ham Consulting Civil Engineers in Foster City. Lori also is proficient in <br />AutoCAD drafting, a "bonus" to the Engineers, and a skill that the other applicants did <br />not have. With her background and experience, Lori has more than the minimum <br />qualifications for the position of Permits Technician. Lori will be working primarily with <br />Engineering and Construction where her survey and drafting experience will be very <br />valuable assets to the Department of Community Development Services. <br /> <br />Lori has been employed as a casual employee for the past three months, serving at the <br />counter as our temporary Permits Technician. The consensus of the counter team and <br />the Engineering group is that she is a very compatible "fit" for the position. <br /> <br />The approval of hiring at the second step is considered reasonable for the experience <br />Lori brings to the position. She was the top candidate on the list of new applicants for <br />the position. <br /> <br /> <br />0 Patterson <br />anager, Engineering & Construction <br /> <br />Ea~¡- <br /> <br />City Manager <br /> <br />JPIJKL:ss <br />s/library/reports/lynch/hiring of permits technician <br /> <br />---yo- - <br />
