SUBJECT: Amendment to Salary Resolution No. 4646
Introduction
~?NOV 2 8 1978
~LGg`-~. G'~i
This report requests an amendment to Salary Resolution
No. 4646 establishing salaries for the classifications
of Pier Carpenter and Event Attendant Supervisor.
Job specifications for Pier Carpenter and Event Attendant
Supervisor were approved by the Personnel Board on
October 25, 1978.
Background
The Pier Division of the Entertainment Facilities Depart-
ment currently has a Laborer II performing maintenance
and carpentry duties on the Pier and its structures.
A classification study was conducted and it was determined
that the level of duties performed was above that of
Laborer II. The new classification of Pier Carpenter
was designed to take into consideration the carpentry
duties, wooden pier construction knowledge, and the semi-
autonomy of the position.
Since the Pier Carpenter position is more skilled than
Laborer II ($1,094/mo. E-step) and less so than Carpenter
($1,284/mo. E-step), the salary for Pier Carpenter, if
approved, should be $1,189/mo. E-step ($14,268/yr.).
With the creation of the Entertainment Facilities
Department, the Auditorium Operations Supervisor in the
Civic Auditorium took over the additional responsibilities
in the operation of the Pier. /

Personnel Board acknowledged the increased duties
of the Auditorium Operations Supervisor by revising
the class specification and by a change in the job
title to Entertainment Facilities Operations Supervisor.
Council established a revised salary in line with the
increased level of responsibilities.
Since the Auditorium continues to operate at an
undiminished pace, the incumbent has been required to
delegate additional duties to the Event Attendant III
who serves as staff assistant. These added duties
include, but are not limited to, interviewing, hiring,
disciplining and terminating of Event Attendant I's and
II's; meeting promoters to show facility capabilities
and discuss technical performance requirements on rentals.
By taking on this important role, along with the
Entertainment Facilities Operations Supervisor, the
available staff time to show potential clients the
facility is doubled.
These duties, in addition to all former functions,
constitute a considerable increase over those falling
to an Event Attendant III, and a partial shift of
responsibilities previously assigned. to the former
Auditorium Operations Supervisor position. The recommended
salary is revised fo a level between Entertainment
Facilities Operations Supervisor and Event Attendant III.
