RECOMMENDATION Approval of the Ordinance. BACKGROUND The Finance Department requests to adjust its staffing by establishing a new position titled Payroll Coordinator. In addition, due to a significant change in duties in one of the Accounting Technician IV positions, said position would be reclassified to the new position of Payroll Coordinator, which more adequately reflects the current function and responsibilities of the job. The result of this action will be no net increase in staffing. The Wastewater Department requests to adjust its staffing allocation in the Treatment Division by abolishing the WWTP Maintenance Supervisor position and establishing a new Assistant WWTP Superintendent position. The new Assistant WWTP Superintendent position will supervise both the Operations and Maintenance sections, which will lead to a more efficient operation, communication, planning, and budgeting. The result of this action will be no net increase in staffing. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funding for the position of Accounting Technician IV was appropriated for in the 2013 budget. The difference in salary of Accounting Technician IV and the Payroll Coordinator position was appropriated in the 2013 Finance Department budget. There will be no net change in the Wastewater Department’s operating costs as a result of this staffing adjustment. Funds for salaries and benefits are from the Sewer User Fund.
