It is the recommendation of the City Manager to reorganize the City of Elko Organizational Chart to include an appointed City Engineer position. This position would manage the Public Works Department, Engineering Department and perform Civil Engineer Services. A condensed version of the current and revised City of Elko Organizational Chart is included in the packet. This proposed Organizational Change would only be implemented if the city is successful in recruiting for the Appointed City Engineer position. JB D.

FOR POSSIBLE ACTION The City Engineer position description has been updated with revisions to accurately reflect the duties and requirements of the position, based on the proposed reorganization presented to Council. The City Engineer position, an appointed official, has not been staffed since 2006. This update provides duties for the position, which if approved by the City Council would encompass responsibilities over Public Works and Engineering Departments.
