Pursuant to the policy adopted by the Town Council (January 5, 2015), wherein the "knowledge and approval of the Town Council" is required before filling vacancies of full-time positions, the Public Works Department requests permission to fill one (1) position that has become vacant due to a retirement, as well as any subsequent openings that may become available due to employee transfers.  This is an existing position within Local 1179.  The job description for this position was approved by the Town Council at the February 19, 2008 Town Council meeting.  There will be no net change in the number of approved positions.
