The staff position which is union exempt lists a salary expectation of 70,000 to 80,000 dollars based on experience. The successful applicant requires an undergraduate degree in planning recognized by the Canadian Institute of Planners, and 2 to 5 years of municipal planning experience or equivalent.
The full outline of Duties and Qualifications is available from the Job Posting and can be reviewed below, the position is listed as to remain open until filled.
The August job posting for a Community Planner marks the second job opportunity listed by the City related to urban planning this summer, in June the City listed the position of City Planner 1 which had a deadline for applications of July 18th.
The Twin postings might leave some in the community to wonder to the status of Zeno Krekic among the staff hierarchy at City Hall. Regular readers of the blog will have noted that from our reports from Council, it has been the City Planner who, through the Office of Planning and Development Services has for the most part provided counsel to City Council on the many planning and development issues that they have considered over the last number of years.
