 C. ATH2025-035 Authorization to approve the reclassification of two positions 
within the Public Works Streets Division from Warehouse Attendant to 
Warehouse Attendant II. 
Citywide 
 
Joe Bennett, City Administrator, provided the following background: 
  
This request is based on the Public Works restructuring of the Warehouse Division to 
reclass current positions to allow for future progression as well as removing the 
supervisory position that was deemed unnecessary for the efficient and effective 
operations of the warehouse division. 
  
There will be an increase in salaries of $5,424.00 in total, however there will be no 
budget impact due to the removal of the supervisory position that was previously over 
warehouse staff.
