RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 25715 to add one (1) Accountant III (SATA) (represented) position at Salary Plan and Grade ZB5 1576 ($6,263-$7,612) and cancel one (1) vacant Supervising Accountant (SAHJ) (represented) position #12963 at Salary Plan and Grade ZA5 1703 ($7,102-8,633) in the Public Works Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action will result in an annual savings of $23,365. This position will be funded by 100% local Road and Special District funds.

BACKGROUND:

This proposed action reverses the action previously approved on February 25, 2020, Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22572 to add one (1) Supervising Accountant position and cancel one (1) Accountant III position. This previous action was taken to allow recruitment of replacement staff prior to the incumbent’s separation. This action allowed adequate time for the transfer of specialized knowledge from the experienced incumbent to the staff member who would be assuming the duties. This process has been fully completed and therefore, reversal of the original action is appropriate to restore the original staffing structure.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Public Works Department will not have the ability to assign work to the appropriate classification.
