RECOMMENDATION(S):

Acting as the Governing Body of the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District, ADOPT Ordinance Code 2018-05 amending the County Ordinance Code to exclude from the Merit System the new classification of Fire District Aide-Exempt.  

FISCAL IMPACT:

If approved, the fiscal impact of establishing this classification will be negligible. The Fire District already has a cadre of Student Interns assigned to various divisions. Some of the Fire District's current cadre of Student Interns will be replaced by the Fire District Aide-Exempts. It is not anticipated that this transition will have a meaningful impact on temporary wages.

BACKGROUND:
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
The Human Resources Department recommends creation of Fire District Aide-Exempt pursuant to Administrative Bulletin 430.1.  
  
Creation of the Fire District Aide-Exempt classification is necessary to accomplish time-limited non-professional work in the Fire District under direct supervision. This classification is distinguished from the class of Student Intern in that the latter requires current enrollment in Fire/EMS related college courses or possession of a degree and limits incumbents to working 20 hours per week. The establishment of this classification will give the Fire District the flexibility to hire temporary/seasonal workers during fire season, weed abatement season, Firefighter Recruit academies, and for additional logistics and administrative support as needed.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Fire District will not have the flexibility to hire temporary/seasonal workers as needed.
