SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 6-5-16 OF CHAPTER 5, OF
TITLE VI OF THE PUEBLO MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE FY
2022 CLASSIFICATION AND PAY PLAN BY ESTABLISHING THE PAY
SCALE FOR CIVIL ENGINEER TRANSPORTATION
SUMMARY:
Attached for consideration is an amended Pay Plan Ordinance that reflects the addition of the pay
rate and salary schedule for the classification of Civil Engineer Transportation.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On December 28, 2021, Ordinance No.10092 was approved by City Council. This Ordinance
provided the classification and pay plan for fiscal year 2022.
BACKGROUND:
A City objective is to enhance the efficiency with which the various elements of development
review connected to commercial and residential development projects is accomplished. The City
is experiencing a significant increase in the number of land use and development-related
applications from developers and property owners. Many of these applications are complex and
inter-related, making the application review process a significant challenge.
In response, Mayor Gradisar has requested that several new positions be added to City staffing
to support development activities. One of those positions is one Civil Engineer Transportation.
The Civil Engineer-Transportation will provide direct support to the Traffic Engineer, reviewing
applications for various land use and development activities; managing standards and
specifications related to signals, signs, and striping for City projects; designing and developing
scopes of work for City projects; analyzing traffic data and transportation studies; and performing
other duties as assigned by the Traffic Engineer. The Civil Engineer-Transportation will be on a
career path that leads to licensure as a Professional Engineer which is required within five years
of the employee's hire date
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Salary and benefit costs for the position will be paid out of the General Fund.
Assuming the Civil Engineer Transportation position is approved, the timeline to fill through the
Civil Service, selection and post-offer background processes would likely result in a hire date no
sooner than August 2022. Therefore, the more realistic cost of the position would be
approximately $53,312 in FY 2022.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
The no action alternative would be to retain current staffing levels and continue as is with respect
to development activities within the City. As has been outlined, this is not operationally ideal for
the departments involved given the surge in development related activities. The suggested
changes represent a more efficient way to accomplish this important work for the community.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
