summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
City Administration is requesting to amend City Ordinance 34.107, to reclassify positions, to create new positions and to retitle positions within the “Position Classification Plan” to reflect position changes included in the City’s budget for FY 2023-2024. There is a total of 60 new, reclassified and retitled positions for this recommended budget fiscal year, (Exhibit A). As part of the City's Strategic Plan goal "Quality and Affordable City Services", we continue to invest in our personnel to attract and retain a qualified and knowledgeable workforce. The Human Resources Department continues to conduct a comprehensive Classification and Compensation Study that assesses pay equity of the existing workforce in order to maintain a competitive standard with peer government agencies. This proposal also focuses on the potential growth within the departments and facilitate a viable succession plan.
NEW POSITIONS:
There are 17 new recommended position classifications that will be added to the City Ordinance 34.107, “Position Classification Plan”. The Permit Services Clerk, Cyber Security Officer, E-Plan Technology Analyst, Permit Expeditor II, Human Resources Manager, Permit Records Specialist, Permit Services Specialist, Building Field Inspector III, Building Plans Examiner II, Utilities Electrician Apprentice, Deputy Recreation Director Parking Operation Coordinator, Utilities Asset Management Coordinator, Utilities System Chief Operator, Events Coordinator, Senior Recreation Leader and Park Ranger Supervisor will be occupied by internal personnel. Whereas, these incumbents’ current positions will be reclassified to the new classification, making the fiscal impact only to the percentage amount between the pay grades of the positions. Also, two incumbents are receiving special assignment pay for additional duties related to the new classification. For these incumbents, the special assignment pay will be absorbed in their base pay creating zero fiscal impact. For all other positions, the fiscal impact is based on the minimum of the pay range. The total estimated fiscal impact for new classifications is $657,263.
RECLASSIFIED POSITIONS:
There is a total of 16 recommended reclassifications that have been identified for the new fiscal year. Of the 16 reclassifications three incumbents are receiving special assignment pay for additional duties related to the reclassifications. For these incumbents, the special assignment pay will be absorbed in their base pay creating zero fiscal impact. For all other positions the fiscal impact is $103,527.
PAY GRADE CHANGES:
There are eight recommended pay grade changes. The fiscal impact will only apply to those incumbents who are currently maxed out in their pay range, up to a maximum of 3% annually. $109,000.
TITLE CHANGES:
There are 19 recommended title changes. There will be zero fiscal impact associated with changing these title changes.
Total fiscal impact for all 60 positions is approximately $869,790 and has been appropriately accounted for in this year’s budget. Incumbents who are currently receiving special assignment pay will have the corresponding pay adjustment absorbed in their base pay creating zero fiscal impact.
Origin of request for this action: Human Resources
Fiscal impact and source of funding: Departments have budgeted for these expenditures which have been recommended in the FY 2024 departmental budgets.
