RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22416 to increase the hours of two (2) Deputy Public Defender III (25TB) (represented) position numbers 13505 and 3927 from part-time (32/40) to part-time (36/40) at salary plan and grade JD5 2146 ($10,82-$3,179); and cancel one (1) Deputy Public Defender III (25TB) (represented) vacant position number 13527 (part-time 8/40) at salary plan and grade JD5 2146 ($10,842-$13,179) effective February 1, 2019 in the Public Defender's Office.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Cost Neutral.

BACKGROUND:

The Office of the Public Defender is requesting this position adjustment to increase the hours of two (2) Deputy Public Defenders III positions from 32/40 hours to 36/40 hours so that the incumbents can be assigned additional cases.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request is not approved, the Public Defender will not be able to increase the hours of the incumbents and it may be difficult for incumbents to take on additional cases working less hours.
