BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Das Rec proposes reclassifying three Fitness Instructors (19 hours per week) to PTR positions (29 hours per week/each). This will allow an additional thirty hours per week for existing staff to provide personal training to community members. Due to the hour limitation of staff based on the current classification, members have been placed on a waitlist until staff availability becomes available. The ability to work up to 29 hours will provide increased flexibility with scheduling, additional availability to train members on the waitlist, and availability for future community members interested in personal training.

 

 

Budget Amendment - General Fund - The conversion of three Part-Time staff to Part-Time Regular staff will require increasing the budget for employee expenditures by a total of $73,709. The estimated revenue impact of the increased personal training is a total of $93,600 per fiscal year. This amendment will provide a cumulative return on investment totaling $19,891, which results in a net positive impact on the General Fund.
