Conservation Corps Field Assistant 100 North Jefferson Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin 54301-5026 greenbaywi.gov MEMORANDUM Human Resources Department To: Personnel Committee From: Emma Baierl Human Resources Generalist Re: Request to Fill Vacant Positions Date: September 9, 2025 The Human Resources Department is requesting authorization to fill the following replacement positions approved as part of the 2025 budget and all subsequent vacancies resulting from internal transfers. The justification reports are attached. • Custodian I – Replacement position due to the resignation of Mark Gallenberger effective August 15, 2025. This position is budgeted at $21.78 - $24.19 per hour (Pay Grade C). • Administrative Clerk – Replacement position due to the resignation of Amanda Zuleger effective August 27, 2025. This position is budgeted at $23.21 - $25.78 per hour (Pay Grade D). • Laborer – Replacement position due to the retirement of Paul Mleziva effective September 16, 2025. This position is budgeted at $26.07 – 29.79 per hour (Pay Grade F). • Conservation Corps Field Assistant – Replacement position due to the resignation of Andrew Gilsdorf effective September 12, 2025. This position is budgeted at $26.07 - $29.79 per hour (Pay Grade F). 100 North Jefferson Street * Room 500 * Green Bay, WI 54301-5026 * (920) 448-3147 * Fax (920) 448-3128 www.green-bay-org Position Fill Request Justification Report August 18, 2025 Position Title: Custodian (I) 1. If this position is a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for the vacancy. If this is not a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for requesting the position. X Replacement Position Not a Replacement Position This position is vacant as a result of the resignation of Mark Gallenberger effective 08/15/2025. 2. Is this position included in the current budget? If not, please list how this position will be funded (grant, internship, etc.). Please list the salary range of the position. Yes, this position is included in the budget. The current wage range is $21.78 - $24.19 per hour (Pay Grade C). 3. Please list the functions and any special information regarding this position. The Custodian I position works under general direction, performs work of moderate difficulty in custodial care and maintenance of the City Hall Facility. 4. Does the position generate revenue or reduce expenses? If so, provide an estimated amount. No, this position does not generate revenue. 5. Please explain why current staff is unable to absorb duties of this position. Staff are responsible for the maintaining of the City Hall Facility ensuring that all offices, common areas, and meetings rooms as well as the surrounding grounds are maintained in a clean and safe manner. 6. If duties of position are presently being done, how are they done? When vacancies occur in this classification, we are unable to meet all of the maintenance needs of City Hall, as well as upkeep of the facility. As positions become vacant, we prioritize and reprioritize our daily work. The effect is that many of the services that we provide to the public and City Staff are being performed less frequently. 7. What service would be reduced or eliminated if this position is not filled? The overall service would be reduced. We have tried to lessen the obvious impact by reprioritization. 8. What are the alternative methods and costs of accomplishing the work? Contracting for various maintenance services would need to be explored. Costs would be dependent on the service contracted. The Custodian I performs a wide range of services during a calendar year, therefore making it difficult to replace a single position by contracting. 9. Are there union issues? No. 10. Other supporting comments. Custodial Staff have endured increased sanitization priorities and requirements. This position also ensures that we have a staff member present in City Hall during the evenings to ensure facility is maintained and secured for evening meetings. Whenever any custodial are absent, it becomes a strain on our current staff. During the current gap, we have had to pull additional staff from the Parks Maintenance Division to assist with the locking of the building and the custodial duties in addition to their regular maintenance duties in the evening. In addition we will be in a overtime status for additional staff members. Position Fill Request Justification Report August 18, 2025 Position Title: Administrative Clerk (Public Works) 1. If this position is a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for the vacancy. If this is not a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for requesting the position. X Replacement Position Not a Replacement Position This position will be vacant following the resignation of Amanda Zuleger effective at the end of the work day on August 27, 2025. 2. Is this position included in the current budget? If not, please list how this position will be funded (grant, internship, etc.). Please list the salary range of the position. Yes – this position is included in the budget. The current wage range is $23.21-$25.78 per hour (Pay Grade D). 3. Please list the functions and any special information regarding this position. A.

Composes routine correspondence in accordance with standard policies. I. Assists Public Works Supervisor and Parking Division office staff with clerical-related duties as deemed necessary. J. Performs related work as required. 4. Does the position generate revenue or reduce expenses? If so, provide an estimated amount. Clerical staff is responsible for accepting payment and/or preparing invoices for a variety of services including, but not limited to, excavation permits, bulk garbage collection, traffic equipment damages, snow removal, weed cutting, recycling carts, parking citations, and monthly parking stall rentals amounting to approximately $3,000,000 per year in City revenue. 5. Please explain why current staff is unable to absorb duties of this position. Loss of an Administrative Clerk position represents a reduction in DPW’s ability to provide all administrative services in a timely manner, including customer service response times, accepting payments, sending invoices, issuing permits, executing DPW contracts, completing correspondence and letters, finalizing Committee agendas, reports, and minutes. 6. If duties of position are presently being done, how are they done? The position duties are being split between the Public Works Supervisor and two other Administrative Clerks. 7. What service would be reduced or eliminated if this position is not filled? Response time and the level of service to the public would be impacted. 8.

Position Fill Request Justification Report August 26, 2025 Position Title: Laborer – DPW Operations Division/Street Section 1. If this position is a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for the vacancy. If this is not a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for requesting the position. _ _X___ Replacement Position Not a Replacement Position This vacancy is the result of the retirement of Paul Mleziva effective at the end of the regular workday on September 16, 2025. 2. Is this position included in the current budget? If not, please list how this position will be funded (grant, internship, etc.). Please list the salary range of the position. Yes, this position is currently funded in the DPW operating budget. The current wage range for a Laborer is $26.07/hour to $29.79/hour (Pay Grade F). 3. Please list the functions and any special information regarding this position. Laborers perform a full range of duties including (but not limited to) operating commercial vehicles, light vehicles, power equipment, and hand tools. They are assigned to snow removal, leaf collection, grass cutting, guard rail repair, roadway repair, traffic control, and other assignments necessary to complete DPW core functions. 4. Does the position generate revenue or reduce expenses? If so, provide an estimated amount. This position does not generate revenue for the City. Conversely, DPW’s in-house labor and equipment reduces expenses associated with contracting out for those services and maintains institutional knowledge necessary to operate at higher efficiency. 5. Please explain why current staff is unable to absorb duties of this position. Loss of a Laborer will reduce DPW’s ability to provide Street Section services in a timely manner, including snow/ice removal, leaf collection, and grass/weed cutting. 6. If duties of position are presently being done, how are they done? During periods of short staffing, duties normally performed by vacant positions are not completed. They are assigned to others by order of priority. If there is not adequate time to complete all jobs, then lower priority jobs are postponed or not completed. 7. What service would be reduced or eliminated if this position is not filled? DPW will always perform its core services due to safety-critical and customer service responsibilities of its business. However, a reduction in staffing will result in a lower level of service for residents. 8. What are the alternative methods and costs of accomplishing the work? DPW must comply with State and local laws, ordinances, polices, and rules for care of public infrastructure. The frequency of certain activities cannot be reduced. Loss of Laborers affects the volume of work that can be completed on regular time. One alternative would be working overtime to maintain required services. Another alternative is outsourcing 1 of 2 services. However, both of those alternatives are more costly than merely filling the vacancy. 9. Are there union issues? No 10. Other supporting comments. None 2 of 2 Position Fill Request Justification Report 9/4/2025 Position Title: Conservation Corps Field Assistant 1. If this position is a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for the vacancy. If this is not a replacement position, please indicate the reasons for requesting the position. X Replacement Position Not a Replacement Position This position is vacant following the resignation of Andrew Gilsdorf, effective at the end of the work day on September 12, 2025. 2. Is this position included in the current budget? If not, please list how this position will be funded (grant, internship, etc.). Please list the salary range of the position. Yes, the Conservation Corps Field Assistant position is currently funded in full in the 2025 budget. The current wage range for this position is $26.07/hour to $29.79/hour (Pay Grade F). 3. Please list the functions and any special information regarding this position. This position is responsible for supervising and training all AmeriCorps members serving in the Conservation Corps program. The Conservation Corps Field Assistant is also responsible for tracking progress and assisting in the planning of future restoration projects. 4. Does the position generate revenue or reduce expenses? If so, provide an estimated amount. No, this position does not generate revenue. 5. Please explain why current staff is unable to absorb duties of this position. There are currently only two full time City staff members responsible for running and managing the entire Conservation Corps program. The Conservation Corps Coordinator’s duties include, but are not limited to grant reporting, grant management, project coordination, public outreach and volunteer coordination. The Conservation Corps Field Assistant is primarily responsible for training and supervision of the crews in the field. The Conservation Corps consists of 15 – 30 crew members at any given time. With the Field Assistant leaving, the Conservation Corps Coordinator will have to focus the vast majority of her time to training and supervising the crews. Most of her other duties will not get done until this position is filled. 6. If duties of position are presently being done, how are they done? On a temporary basis, the Conservation Corps Coordinator will take on the responsibilities of supervising the crews. This is not sustainable for a long period of time as the grant management requirements are extensive. 7. What service would be reduced or eliminated if this position is not filled? If this position is eliminated, the City of Green Bay will not be able to fulfill its grant requirements for the AmeriCorps grant. 8. What are the alternative methods and costs of accomplishing the work? There are not alternative methods unless the Conservation Corps crews were to be significantly reduced/eliminated. This would put the City out of compliance for the AmeriCorps grant. 9. Are there union issues? No. 10. Other supporting comments. Report to the Personnel Committee of the City of Green Bay MEETING DATE PREPARED BY September 9, 2025 AGENDA ITEM # E.2 For consideration with possible action on the request to reclassify one vacant Parking Maintenance Technician position to a Parking Maintenance Foreperson and fill any subsequent vacancies resulting from internal transfers. BACKGROUND RECOMMENDATION FISCAL IMPACT ATTACHMENTS 1. Parking Maintenance Foreperson Reclass Memo 100 North Jefferson Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin 54301-5026 greenbaywi.gov August 21, 2025 TO: Personnel Committee Brian Rollefson, Human Resources Director FROM: Justin Linzmeier, Public Works Superintendent Chris Pirlot, Operations Director Valerie Joosten, Director of Public Works RE: Request to reclassify one vacant (1) Parking Maintenance Technician position to a Parking Maintenance Foreperson position and a request to fill any subsequent vacancies resulting from internal transfers. RECOMMENDATION: I. To keep staffing at current levels while also meeting the growing needs of the Parking Division, it is recommended that one (1) full-time Parking Maintenance Technician be reclassified to one (1) full-time Parking Maintenance Foreperson. BACKGROUND II. There are currently ten (10) Parking Maintenance Technicians in the Parking Division Table of Organization. Parking Maintenance Technicians perform all core facility maintenance functions including maintenance and repairs of parking access and revenue control system (PARCS) equipment, maintenance and cleaning of Parking division buildings, ramps, lots, and storage facilities, collection of revenue from parking meters and pay stations, snow and ice control, pavement marking and signing in parking facilities, security and traffic control of lots and ramps, and assisting parking patrons as needed. All Parking Maintenance Technicians function under direct supervision of the Parking Division Superintendent. Through the early 2000’s, Parking Division maintained a Parking Maintenance Supervisor. This position directly managed Parking Division field staff, so the Parking Supervisor could manage budget, policy, procedure and administrative duties with the Traffic Engineer, who served as Parking Manager at that time. With DPW organizational changes and PARCS technology advances, the Maintenance Supervisor position was eliminated, and morphed into the current Parking Superintendent position. With the elimination of a Parking Maintenance Supervisor, an individual on each shift assumed the role of making group work function decisions to keep work activity going when the Parking Superintendent was not at work and/or available. This individual also carried a cellular phone while on shift. Over the past twenty years, PARCS equipment technology and parking management activity has advanced and changed. Because of those changes, the Parking Superintendent regularly needs assistance with planning, organizing, assigning, and overseeing parking facility maintenance functions. By reclassifying one (1) Parking Maintenance Technician to a Parking Maintenance Foreperson, the Parking Superintendent will be able to focus more on project planning, policy development and enforcement, and administrative tasks. The proposed Parking Maintenance Foreperson would report directly to the Parking Superintendent and be tasked with the following responsibilities: • Assign and track duties of field employees • Research and solve issues that occur • Track and document work activity • Investigate complaints and interact with customers to resolve them • Perform the functions of a Parking Maintenance Technician Redistributing these duties will allow for improved time management and efficiency of the division. In addition, during periods when the Parking Superintendent is away, current Parking maintenance staff do not have an individual on-site that can make management decisions. A Parking Maintenance Foreperson would be able to coordinate and lead fieldwork functions with minimal interaction from the Parking Superintendent or Parking Manager. FISCAL IMPACT III. Currently the Parking Maintenance Technician position is included in the City’s pay plan in Pay Grade F with a wage range of $26.07 to $29.79 per hour. The City’s consultant, Cottingham & Butler, has reviewed the job description for the Parking Maintenance Foreperson and advised placement in Pay Grade G, which has a current wage range of $28.04 - $32.98 per hour. The Parking Division plans to fill the newly created Parking Maintenance Foreperson through internal promotion, and filling the subsequent vacant Parking Maintenance Technician position.

BACKGROUND RECOMMENDATION FISCAL IMPACT ATTACHMENTS 1. Sr Landscape Architect Reclass Memo 2. Sr. Landscape Architect 100 North Jefferson Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin 54301-5026 greenbaywi.gov September 5, 2025 TO: Personnel Committee Brian Rollefson, Human Resources Director FROM: Dan Ditscheit, Parks, Recreation, & Forestry Director RE: Request to reclassify one (1) vacant Civil Engineer II position to a Senior Landscape Architect position and a request to fill any subsequent vacancies resulting from internal transfers. RECOMMENDATION: I. To keep staffing at current levels while also meeting the changing needs of the Parks Department, it is recommended that one (1) full-time Civil Engineer II be reclassified to one (1) full-time Sr. Landscape Architect. BACKGROUND II. The Park Design & Development Division currently consists of 2 employees, a Park Planner (Landscape Architect) and a Civil Engineer II. Following the resignation of the previous Park Planner, the Civil Engineer II was promoted to the vacant Park Planner position. To maintain a balance of skillsets within the division, the Parks Department and Human Resources is recommending reclassifying the Civil Engineer II position to a Senior Landscape Architect position. With this proposed change, the Park Planner would assume responsibility for civil engineering duties in addition to existing Park Planner responsibilities. In 2007 the Park Design & Development Division downsized from 3 full-time positions with landscape architecture backgrounds (1 Park Planner and 2 Senior Landscape Architects) to 2 full-time positions (1 Park Planner and 1 Sr. Landscape Architect). After this change was made the project load did not decrease, but instead the workload increased for the two remaining division employees. In 2018 the Senior Landscape Architect position was reclassified to a Civil Engineer II position. It has been the observation of the Parks Department that the division arrangement of having one (1) Civil Engineer and one (1) Landscape Architect on staff has been working extremely well. Both positions require very specific skillsets necessary for continued park development. If approved, the new Senior Landscape Architect position will take on all duties as it relates to landscape design, planting plans, playground designs, park master planning, construction supervision, and project management for smaller Park projects. The Park Planner will now be taking on civil engineering duties in addition to the existing Park Planner duties such as project management for larger projects, project budgeting, Capital Improvement Plan preparation, grant management, property acquisitions, and coordination with various park user groups. It should also be noted that currently both Park Design & Development Division positions spend about 25% of their time with design work as it relates to civil engineering or landscape architecture. This will make for an easy transition for the new Park Planner to take on all duties of the role along with the additional civil engineering duties if there was a Senior Landscape Architect on staff to absorb the landscape architecture work. FISCAL IMPACT III. Currently the Civil Engineer II position is included in the City’s pay plan in Pay Grade K with a salary range of $80,933 to $95,222 annually. The City’s consultant, Cottingham & Butler, has reviewed the job description for the Senior Landscape Architect and advised placement in Pay Grade K, thus resulting in a neutral fiscal impact for reclassifying the position.

BACKGROUND RECOMMENDATION FISCAL IMPACT ATTACHMENTS 1. 09-09-25 Replacement Positions 2. Chapter 6 - Recruitment and Selection Policy (rev.) 100 North Jefferson Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin 54301-5026 greenbaywi.gov MEMORANDUM To: Personnel Committee From: Brian Rollefson, Human Resources Director Re: Removal of Committee & Council Approval Requirement for Replacement Positions & Internal Transfers Date: September 9, 2025 Background At the August 10, 2025, Personnel Committee meeting, staff recommended eliminating the requirement to seek approval for: • Replacing existing, budgeted positions when a vacancy occurs. • Internal transfers between positions that do not change classification, FTE status, or pay grade. Of the 13 municipalities surveyed, only one (Superior) maintains such a requirement. While the Personnel Committee initially referred the item back to staff, it was pulled for discussion at the Common Council meeting on August 19, 2025. The Council ultimately referred it back to staff for further review. Proposed Options While staff continues to recommend removal of the approval requirement, the following options are available for consideration: 1. Approve removal of the requirement as originally recommended at the August 12, 2025 Personnel Committee and August 19, 2025 Common Council meetings. 2. Implement a notification process in which Human Resources emails Personnel Committee members each Wednesday with details of vacant positions or qualifying transfers (job title and department). Committee members would have until 11:00am Friday to request discussion at the next Personnel Committee meeting. If no request is made, the action proceeds as approved. 3. Maintain the current process requiring committee and council approval. Recommendation Staff recommends Option 1: eliminate the requirement for committee and council approval of budgeted replacement positions and qualifying internal transfers, effective immediately. This allows department heads to manage their budgets and staffing levels as already approved by Council. Staff further recommends updating Chapter 6 – Recruitment and Selection Policy to reflect this process change (see attached).
