DESCRIPTION: Incorporated in 1899, the City of Warrenton,
located in Clatsop County on the beautiful northwestern tip of Oregon, is
bordered by the Pacific Ocean on the west and the mighty Columbia River on the
north. With a population of approximately 4,650 residents, Warrenton preserves
its small town atmosphere in the midst of busy marinas, recreational areas, and
historical attractions.
The Public Works Department is a full service municipal department responsible
for prioritizing, planning, construction, maintenance, and operations of the
city's utilities and streets/roads, as well as responsibility for dikes, parks,
and sanitation. The department has seven fulltime employees and a budget for
2010 of $17.1 million. Reporting to the City Manager, the Public Works Director
plans, administers, and directs the functions, activities, and operations of the
department.
The ideal candidate should have eight to ten years of increasingly responsible
public works experience, including supervisory responsibility, at a comparable
agency. A degree in engineering, public administration, architecture, or a
closely related field is preferred. Any combination of education and experience
may be substituted as long as it provides the desired skills, knowledge, and
abilities to perform the essential functions of the job.
