Body
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council adopt the 1st Amendment to Position Authorization Resolution No. 2020-160 authorizing the addition of six (6) Custodian and one (1) Airport Operations Officer (AOO) full-time positions at Fresno Yosemite International Airport (FAT). This action will allow the Director of Airports to hire seven positions and reduce the need for use of temporary staff.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed amendment will add six (6) full time Custodian positions to replace the use of temporary Custodians and one (1) full time Airport Operations Officer to replace the use of a temporary AOO. The additional estimated cost of these seven (7) positions for FY 2021 is $45,000.
BACKGROUND
Airports has been using temporary employees to meet FAT's growing demand related to custodial and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) compliance obligations.

Airports will work with the Personnel Services Department to fill these positons as expeditiously as possible.
