RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriation Adjustment No. 5040 authorizing the transfer of salary and benefit appropriations between the Aging and Adult Services Bureau (decreasing Department 0503 expenditures) and the Administrative Services Bureau (increasing Department 0501 expenditures) to reflect the transfer of four full-time positions engaged in Volunteer & Emergency activities, in the Employment and Human Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action will adjust expenditure budgets to reflect an internal staffing transfer of the four employees (position no. 4435, 13136, 13132, 4005) in the Volunteer & Emergency Services Unit, out of the Aging and Adult Services Bureau (0503) and into the Administrative Services Bureau (0501). The Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) has been journaling these expenses into 0501 since July 1,2018. This appropriation adjustment and complimentary P300 22418, submitted to the Board of Supervisors on February 12, 2019, will eliminate the need for future journals.

FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

The net effect of these appropriation changes is an increase to the budgeted Administrative Services Bureau salaries and benefits and a decrease in the Aging and Adult Services Bureau salaries and benefits by $439,148, with offsetting expenditure transfers in both Bureaus. These positions are claimed as overhead, so no revenue adjustments are needed and there is no additional net county cost.

BACKGROUND:

For enhanced management oversight and improved administrative support, EHSD believes the Volunteer & Emergency Services Unit belong under the Policy and Planning Division in the Administrative Services Bureau. EHSD desires to establish this staffing change for the remainder of the current Budget Year and ongoing thereafter. Since this is an administrative transfer of where the positions are budgeted, there is no impact to the employees.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, expenditure appropriations will not be properly allocated within EHSD to maximize efficiency in administering the Volunteer & Emergency Services program.
