COPT \ Los Angeles, February 24, 1950 085-01 Mr. A. E. Stoddard: Recommendation for authority to change classification and rates of pay of LVLfcW labor forces, Las Vegas. Ho increase in payroll. During the past several years, our water distribution system has been greatly extended. Maintenance and operation thereof has been handled without any increase in our labor personnel. To handle emergency repairs at night, on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, it has been necessary to call upon our labor foroes. This has involved an average of 65 hours at cost of approximately $110 per week. In order to reduce penalty overtime to a minimum, Z propose, subject to your approval, to reorganize present maintenance force, consisting of: 1 - Water Service Helper at #1.25 per hour 3 - Laborers at $1.09 per hour as follows: Day foroe: 1 - Water Service Repairman at #1.46 per hour 3 - Laborers at $1.25 per hour Might force: 1 - Water Service Repairman at $1.46 per hour This employe to oheok a ll night complaints and make necessary emergency repairs, calling upon the labor gang only in such oases as he is unable to handle alone. The proposed rates are comparable with those being paid in Las Vegas for similar work. Z recommend approval of the attaehed Form 2120 establishing the new rates as of March 1, 1950. IP&shK Wm. Reinhardt
