SUMMARY: District has contracted with TMD for Public Outreach and Marketing services since 2020 to provide PR and Public Outreach services, however, the District did not renew the contract for FY 22-23. District staff would like to add the position of Public Outreach Coordinator or Public Outreach Specialist to the District’s Organizational Chart due to the growing need for an in-house Public Outreach person. Based on level of experience and qualifications, the District would hire a Public Outreach Coordinator, a senior position, or a Public Outreach Specialist, a position that performs many of the desired functions and advances to the Coordinator with additional experience at the District. This new position will assist the District by making the District’s mission and story known to a greater audience via social media, email lists and an increased community presence. The full job description can be found attached as Exhibit 19-A: Public Outreach Coordinator/Public Outreach Specialist- Job Description. The Public Outreach Coordinator/Public Outreach Specialist will receive immediate supervision from and reports to the General Manager.
The
position would be placed at Range 26 for the Public Outreach Specialist and
Range 32 for the Public Outreach Coordinator on the District’s salary chart. This placement would be consistent in
maintaining internal relationships with other MPWMD job classifications, their
requirements, and level of responsibility.
The salary range would be consistent in comparison with other agencies
for comparable positions in the area. Range 26 monthly salary is between $6,137.05
to $7,459.63 monthly and Range 32 is between $7,117.09 to $8,650.87.
RECOMMENDATION: The Finance and Administration Committee
recommends that the Board authorize staff
to add the Public Outreach Coordinator/Public Outreach Specialist position to
the District’s current organization chart and associated salary range.
IMPACTS TO STAFF/RESOURCES: The FY 2022-2023 budget included fully funded position at Range 26.
