RECOMMENDATION(S):

FIND that the appointment of Ed Diokno is necessary to fill a critically needed position; and APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the temporary employment of Mr. Diokno, retired January 31, 2017, for the period March 8, 2017 through March 7, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

If the request is granted, salary and related payroll costs are estimated to be less than $20,000 based on one day per week. Salary costs will be absorbed in the District's operating budget.

BACKGROUND:

Mr. Diokno retired from the District V Office on January 31, 2017, as a Senior District Representative. The Board of Supervisors offices rely on staff with a unique set of community outreach and policy evaluation skills. The scope of staff work often includes serving as a liaison to the Municipal Advisory Councils, addressing a broad range of constituent concerns, and representing the supervisor at an array of meetings. Such skills often develop as a result of long term experience. Given Ed Diokno's 11-year tenure in the District 5 office, he is highly adept at meeting these responsibilities. His assistance is needed as the District 5 office explores and plans for the hiring of additional personnel.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Disapproval of this request will deprive the District of needed expertise in the critical and time sensitive duties this office is called upon to perform.
