SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The Office of the District Attorney desires to reclassify one vacant Deputy District Attorney position into a Management Analyst I position. The changes in staffing over the past several years have caused the department to reevaluate the assignment of administrative support functions. New operational duties in the day-to-day management of our digital case management system, an increase in Public Records Act requests and an anticipated increase in Racial Justice Act requests have added an additional need for a dedicated position to handle these duties. This position will independently perform in the development and implementation of complex training protocols for the entire staff. They will also analyze information generated from our case management system to evaluate operational areas of improvement, create written reports to respond to Racial Justice Act and Public Record Act requests, etc.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The Budget Committee has reviewed this report and recommends approval, the County Administrative Office has reviewed this report, the Human Resources Department has approved the Request to Classify (RTC) and is available for review.
FINANCING:
This position change will decrease department funding requirements by approximately $40,000 per year and will be incorporated in the upcoming budget preparation cycle.
