RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22021 to reallocate the classification of Properties Trust Officer (VAVA) (represented) on the salary schedule from salary plan and grade ZB5 1591 ($5,593 - $6,799) to salary plan and grade level ZB5 1591 ($6,870 - $8,350) in the Health Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action will have an annual cost of approximately $7,677, including an estimate pension cost of $1,854. The total cost is fully funded by budgeted General Funds.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to reallocate the classification of Properties Trust Officer. This single position classification is allocated in the Conservatorship and Guardianship Program within the Behavioral Health Division. The program provides a range of services to county residents who have been legally referred by the court or hospital, and cannot provide properly for their own needs. The primary responsibility of the position is the management of estates and properties of conservatees and/or arrangement for the provisions of these services through contract providers. The duties and responsibilities are highly specialized and require extensive knowledge of Lanterman-Petris-Short Act, California Probate Codes, Federal and State laws related to real estate management. Over the years, the scope of the duties has evolved to include accounting and fiscal program management as the incumbent assumed the fiduciary responsibilities for the program.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Given the increase in duties and responsibilities that is being performed in the Public Trust Officer classification, if this action is not approved, this classification will not be appropriately compensated on the salary schedule.
