This exhibit is the Town of Centreville Department of Public Works – Streets Division Career Ladder Matrix listing positions from Utility Worker I (Pay Grade 4) through Public Works Director (Pay Grade 17). For each level it specifies education, license/certification, experience, performance rating (minimum satisfactory), and additional equipment skills required for promotion (examples include jetter, articulated loader, fork lift, mini excavator, Vac-Tron, snow plow, street sweeper, and tanker truck). Many levels require a Class A or B driver’s license/CDL with endorsements, specific safety and first-aid certifications, and trade licenses (e.g., wastewater/water distribution, roadside tree care, pesticide applicator or Maryland waterworks credentials) which must be maintained. Promotions depend on department needs, vacancies, individual qualifications, supervisory approval, and completion of probation where applicable; the Education Equivalency Policy notes three years of experience equals one year of education.
