RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 25966 to add one (1) Senior Deputy County Administrator (ADDH) (unrepresented) position and cancel one (1) vacant Senior Management Analyst (ADTD) (unrepresented) position #6523 in the County Administrator's Office.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Up to $64,001, including $10,855 attributable to the employer share of pension costs. 100% General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

On February 28, 2022, the County Administrator's Office launched a recruitment for Senior Deputy County Administrator following a previous incumbent vacating a position in December 2021. Since that time, the County Administrator's Office has been working on ways to strengthen succession planning to mitigate the impact of future retirements and separations of staff on office operations.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

After evaluating staffing within the department, the County Administrator's Office has determined that one vacant Senior Management Analyst position should be canceled and an additional Senior Deputy County Administrator position should be created to ensure continuity of service for ongoing operations in the future. This would result in the hiring of two candidates into Senior Deputy County Administrator positions.

This will allow sufficient time to train and mentor incoming staff allowing for a more coordinated transition of duties, including budget monitoring and development, staffing of Board Standing committees and other special projects administered by the department that are critical to ongoing County operations.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County Administrator's Office will not be able to hire a second Senior Deputy County Administrator to assist with succession planning within the department.
