I, Dave Patroon, Supervisor, Communications Department, do hereby certify under
oath as follows:
At the time of 1974 budget preparation in the fall of 1973, it was recognized
that the Communications Department needed to hire, as a regular employee, an
additional electronics technician. We were unable to de~ermine at that time
whether an existing EEA e~ployee, Leonard S. Sigurdson, could be trained at an
early enough date to fill the job, or if a i-rained, experienced, licensed
technician would have to be hired. It was determined that the position would
not be budgeted, but would be dealt with as required, at such time during the
1974 year, when a course of action was determined. ~h~. Sigurdson is scheduled
for termination under the EEA program on May $1, 1974.
It has now been determined that although ~'~. Sigurdson has performed very_
satisfactorily within the limits of his training and experience, the Communi-
cations D~pamtment has a pressing need for a trained, experienced, licensed
tec]mician.
It has therefore been my recommendation to the City Commissioners that a
trained technician be hired as opposed to hiring ~.~. Sigurdson. I have also
requested that Mr. Sigurdson be picked-up, if possible, as a trainee in the
Co~nunications Department, under the Federal Manpower Program.
The additional trained technician has been needed for more than a year, and the
volume and level of service requested from the Communications Department has
reached a point of clearly indicating the need for immediate additioD~l help.
The alternative is curtailment or deteriomation of service.
The amount of Appropriation required is $8,400.
