Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: Human resources is currently undertaking a job description revision project for all existing job descriptions that were last revised more than 10 years ago. The intention of the project is to ensure that all city job descriptions are in a uniform format, using standard language for job requirements; the review also allows HR to remove any outdated verbiage and make sure that content related to technology or equipment is current. The existing classification of planner II has been revised as part of the job description review project. The old job description was highly specific to land use and has evolved to include essential objectives like project management and process facilitation, which are reflected in the revised job description. There is no change in the pay range, which is Range 133, pay rate of $4,779 to $5,633 per month.
