In collaboration with Mr. Robert Lennox, Director of Community Services/Parks & Recreation, staff researched and analyzed available information and determined that the new proposed Community Services Superintendent classification will allow for better distribution of management duties along the proposed reorganization.

IV. BACKGROUND
As part of the reorganization efforts for the Community Services/Parks & Recreation Department, staff worked with Director Robert Lennox to create the proposed job specifications. This included job analysis and other forms of meetings, which allowed staff to draft a list of proposed job duties.
Second, staff examined current job specifications, and deemed that none of the current job specifications satisfied the requirements identified by Director Lennox. As such, staff proceeded with creating the new job specs. Staff also examined internal and external market data and recommended allocating the new proposed classification to the same pay range as other superintendent positions, with the Association of Management Employees (AME) most recent Memorandum of Understanding.
After, staff completed the Meet & Confer with AME on Tuesday, February 8th of 2022 (which included Director Lennox in attendance) and both parties agree upon the proposed Community Services Superintendent job specification and salary allocation as presented.
V. FISCAL IMPACT
There is no anticipated fiscal impact associated with adopting the new proposed classification. The Department of Community Services/Parks & Recreation will be presenting a separate resolution to recommend the adoption of the proposed reorganization.
