Subject: Request for Reclassification of Christina Curiel
The purpose of this memorandum is to request a Job Reclassification for Christina Curiel
from her existing position of"Engineering Technician"to that of"Engineering
Assistant". Christina is now at her highest step as an Engineering Technician, yet has
had full charge responsibility on(2)major engineering projects; The Pavement
Management Plan and the City Wide Concrete Improvement Project. Both of these
projects were of major size and scope(Pavement Management=$6.5 million and
Citywide Concrete Improvement Project=$1.1 million). Her role on both of these
projects included(but was not limited)to the following; distress quantity calculation,
identification of corrective treatment strategies, complete bid specification development,
calculation of engineering cost estimate, coordination of pre bid conference, coordination
job walk,bid review and bid advisement, coordination of pre construction conference,
submittal oversight(bonds, insurance,traffic control plans, etc),job construction
oversight,job inspection, change order pre approval, and notice of completion pre
approval. Simply stated, she has demonstrated the ability to take on major
responsibilities while communicating with the Director and City Engineer in a manner
that expedites successful completionof the project at hand.
Additionally, Christina is proficient in Autocad. This is an engineering software program
that develops engineering drawings. She has been our resident expert with Computer
Aided Drafting and utilized this skill on numerous projects;producing both plans and
graphics. She has also recently developed a comprehensive "Utility Trenching and
Backfill" specification that the department is seriously evaluating for implementation in
the near future. While performing the above, she manages to also take on the role of
Department liaison with the Architectural Barriers Board and is frequently requested to
serve as a bi-lingual interpreter with our Spanish speaking residents.
Christina has a positive up-beat demeanor and a consistent willingness to take on new
assignments that both challenges and increases her knowledge. She is deserving of this
reclassification.
The fiscal impact of this reclassification will be $4995.48. This will be absorbed by the
Sewer Fund and there are sufficient funds available. Her annual salary will be
$49,483.56 ($4123.63 /month) and will be allocated 40%to Engineering(651) and 60%
to the Sewer Fund as illustrated below;
