· Attached request from Superintendent of Public Works, Jerry Delfavero, approved by City Manager Mark Palesh to make changes to the MEO & MEO 2 job descriptions.
Jerry Delfavero explained that he is requesting to change the job descriptions of MEO 1 and MEO 2. When the PW was split into 2 divisions MEO 1 was at the garage and MEO 2 at the Landfill. Now were all one. In the job description it states to operate single axle trucks. We do not have any which creates a union issue. The union has backed me in the past about this issue but for future I want the axle number to be correct. You also need a Class B license to operate these vehicles. The other changes make the employees aware of their job duties.
Commis Brennan questioned if the Class B is for MEO 2 only. Commission Camardo questioned if the PW dept is checking to make sure their NYS license stays valid and not only upon hire. Commis Hardy had a question in regards to tapping water lines – residential or business. Jerry explained that the water lines are the cities responsibilities so the MEO's need to know how to do it, the drivers licensees are checked periodically and that the class B license should be for MEO 1 & MEO 2. Bill Fulton questioned that the min. qualifications are the same does one go to another – do you have to be an MEO 1 first? Also, do you want to add that a HS diploma is necessary? Jerry stated MEO 2 is a little higher pay but you don't have to be an MEO one 1st. Commission
discussed HS diplomas and said it is not necessary to have one in the min. qualifications. Motion made by Commis Camardo to accept the job changes to MEO 1 and MEO 2 that Jerry has presented. Second by Commis Hardy. Motion Carried 3-0.
