RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22349 to add four (4) Intermediate Clerk-Project (99J3) (represented) positions at Salary Plan and Grade QH5 0946 ($3,228 - $3,924), and cancel four (4) Associate Teacher-Project (CJW1) (represented) vacant position numbers 16414, 12918, 6815, and 13324 at Salary Plan and Grade QH5 0643 ($2,391 - $2,907) and two (2) Infant/Toddler Associate Teacher -Project (CJW2) (represented) vacant position numbers 14083 and 6879 at Salary Plan and Grade QH5 0643 ($2,391 - $2,907) in the Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action will result in an annual saving of approximately $33,066, and net annual pension cost saving of $6,537. Added positions will be funded with 50% Federal revenue, and 50% State revenue.

BACKGROUND:

The Intermediate Clerk-Project classification is needed to support the Comprehensive Services Unit in the Community Services Bureau with data entry, collection and processing of parent applications and documentation required for enrolling new children in the Bureau's various child care programs. Further, the Intermediate Clerk-Project positions will be filing and keeping accurate documentation and preparing progress reports required by the program's funding sources. These clerks will provide clerical support to the Comprehensive Services Managers, the Comprehensive Services Assistant Managers, and the Assistant Directors.

The six vacant positions being eliminated are no longer needed due to programmatic changes.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, CSB's Comprehensive Services Unit will not have sufficient staff to perform the services to program families required by the Head Start Performance Standards.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau supports four of Contra Costa County's community outcomes - Outcome 2: Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood; Outcome 3: Families that are Economically Self Sufficient; Outcome 4: Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing; and Outcome 5: Communities that are Safe and Provide a Health Quality of Life for Children and Families. Failure to add the required clerical positions may negatively impact the Bureau's ability to timely and effectively support the outcomes listed above.
