RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22448 to add one (1) Building Plan Checker 1 (FRWA) (represented) position at salary plan and grade TB5 1208 ($4,061.48 - $4936.75) in the Department of Conservation and Development.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund. The cost associated with this position is approximately $92,457/year. Of this amount, approximately $17,805 is attributed to retirement costs. This position will be funded by Land Development fees.

BACKGROUND:

The permit and plan check numbers have steadily increased over the last four (4) years. The Department of Conservation and Development ended FY 2017/18 with permit and plan check numbers totaling 27,588. This is compared to 23,931 in FY 14/15; 25,566 in FY 15/16, and 26,043 in FY 16/17. With the increased trend in building permits and plan check activities, it is operationally critical for DCD to add another Building Plan Checker position to help address the increasing workload.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without the additional Building Plan Checker I position, the Department of Conservation and Development cannot guarantee efficient, timely and accurate plan check service for our customers.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
