RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22497 to retitle and reallocate the salary of the classification Fleet Services Center Supervisor (PMHC) (represented) from salary plan and grade level ZA5 1651 ($6,549 – $7,220) to Fleet Services Supervisor (PMHC) (represented) at salary plan and grade level ZA5 1651 ($7,724 - $8,516) in the Public Works Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total increased annual cost is estimated at $9,045, including increased pension costs of $1,676. This action will be funded 100% Fleet Internal Service Fund.

BACKGROUND:

The Fleet Services Center Supervisor is a single-class position responsible for supervising and assigning the work of subordinate staff responsible for the maintenance, service and repair of county vehicles and equipment in the Public Works Fleet Services Division. Retitling this position to Fleet Services Supervisor will provide a more concise job title.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Reallocation of salary is necessary to correct the salary inversion issue with the subordinate position, Lead Fleet Technician. The inversion of salary was created when a pay equity adjustment for the Lead Fleet Technician position was negotiated and implemented in July 2009. The last incumbent Fleet Services Center Supervisor vacated the position in December 2003 and the position has remained vacant since then. With the increase in operational workload, there is a current need to recruit a Fleet Services Supervisor. A salary reallocation is necessary to ensure that the position is compensated in alignment with the unit’s organizational structure.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to adjust the salary for this classification will negatively impact the Department’s ability to recruit highly qualified candidates to fill the vacant Fleet Services Supervisor position.
