Title
Request to Modify Job Specification for Park Foreperson
Report
BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department will soon conduct a recruitment for the position of Park Foreperson. The job specification for Park Foreperson was last approved in November 2012.
DISCUSSION

The Typical Duties section was updated to include developing scope of services for request for quotations or requests for proposal. The Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities section was updated to reflect the new duties.
There are no recommended changes to the recruitment type (Open/Promotional) or examination weighting (50% Written Examination and 50% Oral Examination).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
