Senior Planner
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. The posting includes:
- "Why This Role Matters" (intro) maybe treat as About the role? Could be "About the role". We'll include a About the role
with paragraph(s) from that intro.
- "What You’ll Do:" corresponds to Responsibilities. We'll list bullet points.
- "What You Bring:" includes qualifications, requirements, skills. Could split into Requirements (education, experience, AICP) and Skills (communication, etc). But we can combine into Requirements and Skills sections if content present.
- "What We Offer:" benefits. We'll list bullet points.
- Pay: The rate range given. So we need a Pay section with paragraph.
- Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned; there is mention of attending daytime, nighttime, occasional weekend public meetings, travel may be necessary. That's schedule info? Could be considered schedule but not explicit hours. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Schedule: we have mention of attending daytime, nighttime, occasional weekend public meetings, travel may be necessary. That's about schedule but not explicit work hours. Might be considered schedule info. However we need to decide if we should include Schedule section. The posting does not give standard work hours (e.g., full-time 40 hrs/week). It mentions attending meetings at various times and travel. That's somewhat schedule-related but not explicit. Safer to not create Schedule section unless explicit. The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." Since schedule is not explicitly stated as a schedule (like "Full-time, 40 hours per week"), we might omit Schedule.
- Benefits: we have details. So Benefits section.
- Pay: we have range. So Pay section.
- About the role: we have intro.
- Responsibilities: we have "What You’ll Do:" list.
- Requirements: we have education, experience, AICP membership, etc.
- Skills: we have communication, interpersonal, graphic/urban design plus, etc.
We could combine requirements and skills into Qualifications? But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use multiple of those as appropriate.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We need to strip boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, legal, cookie/navigation, application instructions. At end there is EEO statement and recruiting policy. Remove those.
Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract content.
Intro (Why This Role Matters):
"Why This Role Matters: As the Senior Planner at CPL, you will join our Community team and work with a diverse range of clients on planning, zoning, and community development projects.

(Note original had "interpres" typo; we should preserve as written? It says "Read, interpres, and write zoning and other codes." Probably a typo but we must preserve substantive information; we should not correct? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Should we keep the typo? Likely we should keep as is. However "interpres" is likely a mistake; but we must not invent or summarize away detail. Changing it could be considered inventing? It's a correction; maybe we should keep original text. We'll keep "interpres".) - Contribute to internal master planning charrettes. - Draft reports for comprehensive and other master plans. - Organize and attends public input meetings for master planning and other zoning-related projects.
