Add new part-time emergency dispatcher position to city job classifications
Resolution Resolution No. 80-19
In Plain English
The city needs flexibility to hire emergency dispatchers on an as-needed basis rather than full-time only. This creates a new job category for part-time Communications Dispatcher II roles. If approved, the city can hire experienced dispatchers to cover shifts during vacations, sick leave, or high call volumes.
