Transportation Planner III Community Planning

Performs the most highly skilled professional planning and development work in such areas as long-range land use planning, zoning, water quality and various other specialty areas such as transportation modeling, watershed planning, and wildlife habitat planning. Planner III’s are assigned to the most challenging projects and assignments, measured by a combination of the project’s complexity, scope, impact on the community or other relevant considerations. Examples would include major project, controversial developments, those with the highest and most complex environmental implications or those representing the greatest cost to the developer or revenue source to the county. Employees in this classification act in a lead capacity within area(s) of expertise and may direct the work of others within the Department that assist with assigned project(s). Being a highly competent journey level planner with emphasis in a specific area is not sufficient alone to warrant classification at this level.
