§ 21-5. Classification of positions.

(a)

The town administrator shall recommend classification of all positions in the personnel system, assigning to each the appropriate title and prerequisites for appointment. The classification plan shall be so developed and maintained that all positions substantially similar with respect to duties, responsibilities and authority over character of work are included within the same class and that the same schedule of compensation can be made to apply with equity under like working conditions to all positions within the same class. The classification plan so recommended shall be transmitted to the mayor and town council for action.

(b)

The town administrator may recommend the reclassification of positions from time to time. Every position in the personnel system shall be allocated to one (1) of the classes and, thereafter, the position, title and class so established shall be used in all personnel, fiscal and other documents of the town pertaining thereto.
