N M a T V <br />If we make the decision to have them maintain the Chambers Connector fill <br />sections, then the Harlow Road, Norkenzie Road, Gilham Road, and Centennial <br />Blvd. fill sections should also be put under PARCS Department responsibility. <br />A benefit to consolidating would be to meet special event needs. Often special <br />events occur with the arrival of dignitaries at the airport. There currently <br />is not enough resource there to do quick, tidy -up projects for these events. <br />Consolidation would put more resource at the hands of the supervisor to <br />concentrate on a specific need or problem. <br />Another benefit to consolidating would be that each Division would not need <br />their own specialists. One employee could be the irrigation specialist while <br />another would be the turf specialist, etc. <br />EXISTING PERSONNEL RESOURCES <br />The airport has one person that does vegetation work as her major job function. <br />Other employees assist as needed, particularly during the growing season. The <br />full time employees are supplemented with summer help employees. A proposal to <br />add 2 full time employees to help supplement vegetation needs is being consi- <br />dered. <br />Maintenance Division uses two full -time staff to operate the flail mower and <br />slope mower that are pulled from street sanitation functions. Four summer help <br />employees are used to supplement the full -time staff. The Maintenance Division <br />also has a full -time vegetation inspector. <br />Waste -water Treatment Plant uses full -time staff, supplemented by summer help <br />employees. <br />I feel it is difficult to determine exactly how much resource is dedicated to <br />vegetation programs as all 3 division use the same personnel for other pro- <br />grams. <br />
