Minimum Qualifications
Knowledge, Skills & Abilities Required:
Work is performed in a standard indoor office setting with climate control and overhead lighting, supplemented by some natural light. The work environment includes individual cubicle workstations, shared office equipment (e.g., copiers, printers, shredders), and a moderate level of background noise due to proximity to meeting and break rooms. Duties involve frequent use of a computer and telephone, extended screen time, and regular interaction with both internal staff and the public. Tasks may include managing multiple priorities, working under deadlines, and shifting focus between customer service and administrative duties. Occasional travel between municipal buildings or off-site meetings may be required. Construction-related noise or vibration may occasionally be present due to ongoing building updates.

Standing or walking occurs for 1–2 hours daily, typically to assist customers, retrieve documents, or attend meetings. Frequent repetitive motion activities include typing and handling office materials. Physical tasks may include occasional lifting, carrying, or pushing objects ranging from light (under 1 lb) to moderate (up to 25 lbs), such as boxes of documents, binders, and office supplies. Movements such as reaching, stretching, bending, stooping, or kneeling are occasional and usually brief. Visual requirements include near and peripheral vision, color recognition, and depth perception for reading documents, using equipment, and navigating the workspace. Hearing is essential for communication, phone use, and recognizing auditory signals or alerts. The position may occasionally require navigating uneven surfaces or enclosed spaces (e.g., elevators, storage closets), but does not involve climbing, working at heights, or handling hazardous equipment or materials.
