Report
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors:
a. Amend the County Counsel Departmental Budget 1210-COU001-8057 to reallocate one (1) Management Analyst II to one (1) Management Analyst III as indicated in Attachment A (4/5ths vote required); and
b. Direct the County Administrative Office to incorporate the approved changes in the FY 2018-19 Adopted Budget to reflect the change in position counts (4/5ths vote required).
SUMMARY/ DISCUSSION:
Due to staff changes and additional demands placed on the County Counsel’s office a need was identified to reevaluate the level of duties required to perform complex analytical duties in support of multiple program areas such as the Civil Grand Jury, Closed Session, Supervision of the Legal Support Division and management of the day-to-day operations of the office. The duties require the individual to work with a high level of independence on highly confidential and complex matters with Department Heads/Judges/Elected officials/attorneys as well as court and county managers.
The proposed reallocation from Management Analyst II to Management Analyst III is appropriate as the Management Analyst III most accurately reflects the level of duties required in order to support the operations of the office.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The Human Resources Department has reviewed the Request to Classify and concurs with the recommendation.
FINANCING:
There is no impact to the General Fund this fiscal year in that the estimated cost for the remainder of the fiscal year is approximately $3,150 and sufficient appropriation exists to cover that cost. The marginal annual cost for the reclassification for future fiscal years (approximately $10,000) will be addressed in the annual budget process.
