Council adopts formal grid for its management staff Wingham Town Council has adopted a formal wage grid for its management staff. The grid was adopted at the October meeting of town council and is subject to change on Jan. 1. Some members asked if council should not wait until the first of the year when the grid could be adjust- ed. However, as it was explained by Councillor Ward Robertson, with the town hiring a new parks and recreation director this fall, the grid should be in place. New town employees must serve a six-month probation period, then the grid follows five performance levels up to the maximum salary for the position. The grid sets out 1989 rates roe the municipal management staff in Wingham as follows (from the starting probation salary to maxi- mum salary for the position): —clerk -treasurer, $31,037 to $41,382; —deputy clerk -treasurer, $24,688 to $32,918; —public works foreman, $28,633 to $36,575; —assistant works foreman, $24,688 to $32,918; —director of parks and recre- ation, $27,6: to $35,918; —facilities manager, $21,318 to $27,170 and; --day care supervisor, $24,688 to $32,918.
