Nicoll and Members of City Council CC: Sam Azad, City Manager VIA: Brenda Armijo, Acting City Clerk FROM: Marisa Pacheco – Human Resources Director Roni Kimbrel – Finance Director SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO AND AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2018 STAFFING ORDINANCE BY REVISING A POSITION WITHIN THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT SUMMARY: The Finance Department requests to revise their authorized staffing. The Finance Department requests to downgrade one (1) Administrative Technician position to a Senior Clerk Typist. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: On December 26, 2017, City Council Approved Ordinance No. 9213. This Ordinance provided authorized staffing for Fiscal Year 2018. BACKGROUND: The Finance Department requests to adjust its staffing by downgrading one (1) Administrative Technician position to a Senior Clerk position. Recently the position became vacant due to a transfer. This prompted a review of the duties assigned to the position. The audit revealed that the duties, responsibilities and essential functions of the position are clerical and routine in nature and more appropriately aligned with the requirements of a Senior Clerk Typist classification. Properly classifying the position is appropriate and also maintains the level of operational efficiency of the department. The result of this action will be no net increase in staffing. The Finance Department will realize a salary savings as a result of this action. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Funding for the position Senior Clerk will come from the general fund. A salary savings of $2,648.73 for the remainder of 2018 will be realized due to this change in classification. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: None STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None. This is an existing classification and did not require a meet and confer. ALTERNATIVES: The no action alternative for the current Administrative Technician position would be to retain the current classification assignment in the Finance Department and would be filled accordingly, following adjustment in duties to justify the position as the higher level. This would not be operationally ideal for the Finance Department. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Ordinance.
