Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:

2.

Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Department of Health and Human Services (1160-516)
DISCUSSION:
In recent years, the need for additional and expanded digital communication and document applications has increased dramatically. The increased use, complexity and security requirements of enterprise applications have increased the workload of the County Administrative Office - Information Technology Division (“Information technology Division”) and requires additional cross training to ensure continuity. In order to accommodate the increased usage and functionality requirements of enterprise applications used county-wide, the Information Technology Division requests authorization to allocate a 1.0 full time equivalent Information Technology Applications Analyst I/II position beginning the next bi-weekly pay period following approval.
The Department of Health and Human Services (“DHHS”) is the largest department in the County of Humboldt and has its own designated Information Services Division. However, the enterprise applications used county-wide are managed and supported by the Information Technology Division. As such, the Information Technology Division and DHHS have prepared an inter-departmental memorandum of understanding regarding funding the allocation of a 1.0 full time equivalent Information Technology Applications Analyst I/II position.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the attached inter-departmental memorandum of understanding DHHS will fund a 1.0 full time equivalent Applications Analyst I/II to be allocated and housed in the Information Technology Division. In turn, the Information Technology Division will be responsible for developing, implementing and providing increased support for the enterprise applications shared by DHHS.
