STAFF UPDATE c) Registration Differential for Assistant Engineer William Grant The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Management Support/ Confidential Group (MS/CG) and the District provides that a one-step salary increase shall be given to any full-time, regular employee who achieves registration as a Professional Engineer while employed by the District in a position where such registration is not required. The MOU states, "Such merit increase shall be subject to the employee's demonstration of ability to assist in the accomplishment of District activities requiring a level of skill and importance normally expected from a person with such certification." Assistant Engineer William Grant has successfully passed the examination for licensing as a Professional Engineer in Civil Engineering. He has demonstrated the ability to assist in the design and construction of several Collection System projects, and is consistently involved in work that requires the professional level of judgment expected of a Professional Engineer. Written Announcements July 7, 2016 Page 2of2 The District's Capital Improvements Program includes several complex projects that need to be designed and constructed in the near future. These projects require extensive knowledge in the area of Civil Engineering, thus it is beneficial to the District for Mr. Grant to be a licensed Professional Engineer. In accordance with the terms of the MOU, Mr. Grant will receive a one-step salary increase effective May 26, 2016.
