<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">We are changing the classification of our urban forestry operations staff to formally recognize them in their own arborist series with their own line of progression. We are implementing this

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Please let me know if you have this kind of job classification in place in your urban forestry program and if so, can you please send me the job description / class spec and wage rate for these
positions?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
